Product Description:
These are well‑established with pups.
Haworthia cymbiformis var. obtusa, often called the “Cathedral Window Haworthia – Obtusa Form,” is a compact, glassy‑leafed succulent native to the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa. This variety is distinguished by its exceptionally translucent leaf tips, which appear almost water‑clear and give the rosettes a jewel‑like glow. Leaves are plump, smooth, and rounded—more so than the standard cymbiformis form—and often show pronounced “windows” that allow sunlight to penetrate deep into the leaf tissue. Individual rosettes typically reach 2–3 inches (5–7 cm) tall and 3–4 inches (7–10 cm) wide, forming tight clusters over time. In spring and early summer, the plant sends up slender flower stalks up to 12 inches (30 cm) tall, bearing small white to pale pink flowers with delicate green striping.
Origination: Eastern Cape Province, South Africa
Historic Uses: Ornamental, Houseplant
Height: Rosettes approx. 3–4 inches
Hardiness: USDA Zones 10–11
Other Names: Cathedral Window Haworthia (Obtusa Form), Windowed Boats Haworthia
Growing Instructions:
Prefers well‑draining soil that does not retain excess moisture. A mix containing perlite, pumice, coarse sand, or peat moss works well. Provide bright, indirect sunlight—direct sun can scorch the translucent leaf tips. Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry between waterings; overwatering can cause root rot. Protect from frost, as cold temperatures can damage the leaves and roots. Does not require high humidity and thrives in typical indoor conditions.
Ships in 3.5" pots. You will receive a plant similar to the ones pictured, though size and fullness may vary. Please understand that shipped plants have bumpy rides. A few broken leaves or small stems are normal during shipping and are not considered damage. Broken stems can be rooted once the cut end dries to start new growth. Plants may arrive semi‑dormant, and in winter they may naturally drop a few leaves. If your plant arrives rotting or dead, we will replace it. Please contact us with photo proof within 24 hours of delivery. After 24 hours, plant care becomes the buyer’s responsibility, though we’re always happy to answer questions and help you succeed. We also add brief instructions on getting started when you open your box. We want our plant babies to have happy new homes! 🥰
Heat packs are available to purchase in our shop for cold-sensitive plants. Keep in mind some plants we carry are very tropical and even cold, not freezing, temperatures can kill them. 📌IF YOU EXPECT COLD WEATHER, PLEASE PURCHASE A HEAT PACK! 📌 These are necessary for winter shipping, so I sell them at cost. I won't refund or replace any frozen plants unless you buy one!
