Haworthiopsis venosa ssp. tessellata (Bayer): Rosette of green, triangular leaves that can flush copper to magenta when moderately stressed by bright sun and drought. The flattened leaf tops have a checkered mosaic of translucent "leaf windows" that help the plant tolerate low light conditions. It is a prolific variety and grows into dense, mounding clumps of offsets.

Haworthia are able to tolerate low, indoor light, making them excellent houseplants, even for beginners. They are particularly easy to grow and rarely affected by common succulent pests and diseases. Strong, drought-tolerant roots will grow if they have great drainage and infrequent water. Pick deep containers with drainage holes and a gritty, well-draining soil that is 50% to 70% mineral grit (coarse sand, pumice, or perlite). Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole and allow the soil to completely dry before watering again.
