My First Haworthiopsis & Haworthia Succulent Arrangement

Haworthiopsis and Haworthia succulent arrangement

To celebrate my first year anniversary of succulent gardening, I bought lots of Haworthia and Haworthiopsis! 😂

Here's my yellow basket full of Hawos and I must admit I did have a hard time trying to conceptualize the arrangement.

Uprooted and airdried Haworthiopsis and Haworthia

From what I've learned so far, if we are to create a dish garden or arrangement, it is ideal to add plants in odd number (mix 3 plants, or 5, 7, 9, so on). When I tried to plant them with same spaces (as in with social distancing lol), it actually looked ugly. So I picked up my secret weapon, my last resort... which were actually stones!

The stones saved the day! After placing a stone on the rectangular pot, the arrangement ideas flow like awakened, powerful mana! I placed each Haworthia with ease and satisfied with the result!

Same goes with the Haworthiopsis, where I used 2 stones to balance all the pointy tips of Haworthiopsis coarctata and fasciata.

Creating dish garden or succulent arrangements are soooooooo satisfying! Gotta do more!

Here's the close up view of my Haworthia succulent arrangement. From left: Haworthia retusa, turgida var longibracteata (2x), magnifica, cuspidata, and retusa giant form (2x).

I've placed the Haworthiopsis attenuata (Zebra) variegated and Haworthiopsis limifolia (Fairy Washboard) in separate clay pots since I want them to stand out on their own.

For potting mix, I used Masitera soil-less mix. Repotting done on July 4, 2021.

Till next repotting session!
