Haworthia flowers
Posted by Stuart under: Other Succulents .
Back in the autumn I had got myself into the habit of removing flower spikes from my haworthias, as I decided that the flowers were so unimpressive that it was better for the plants to put all their energies into leaf production.
Now I’m not so sure.
There are three or four in flower at the moment, the best of which is this Haworthia reticulata flower spike. Of course, it’s no epiphyllum, but beggars can’t be choosers and in the depths of an unseasonably cold February it’s good to see something in flower at least.
