Really great looking H. cactuscook! Love the speckled windows, with strong pink/red marbling; like flames! Are both plants Haworthia picta?

My very first H! A Haworthia cooperi v. dielsiana. And she's a bubbly beauty to my eyes. I've repotted it since.

Very nice i have a few and in different light levels they can look very different as ones grown in more light tend to give a lovely pinkish color and the widows look cool i will try to take a close up of one with its windows.

Some lovely specimens there. I recieved a severely challenged Haworthia for Christmas which I am currently trying to revive. Hopefully a few weeks of TLC and it'll be a beauty. Any tips for reanimating the near dead?

I water mine with very weak worm tea once a fortnight. This seems to keep them solid and growing through the years.

The challenged specimen I was nursing has recovered nicely. I'll have to give it a bit of tea as a treat and an apology for it having been unceremoniously uprooted several times by my young daughter who took a liking to it and insisted on carrying it about in it's pot like a pet. I do think her loving was part of the reason it has recovered so well but it could do with a feed. Thanks for the tip.
