Description
Haworthia azurea (Haworthia cooperi var viridis) (price per 5 seeds) is a small solitary or clustering, blue-green plant occurring on steep northern and eastern slopes of the Klein Winterhoek Mountains between Kleinpoort in the west and Kirkwood in the east. It grows in filtered shade of bushes and in the wild ranges in colour from blue-green to dull green-brown, depending upon the amount of sunlight it receives. Sowing : Sow the seeds during the cool, early summer months of the year in a light, sandy, loam mixture in a seed tray, 4 mm below the soil surface. If sown too deep, they will be smothered and probably not germinate. Ensure there is adequate drainage. A light mixture constitutes materials such as pumice, gravel, perlite and fine-textured humus. On top of this mixture, sprinkle a thin layer of coarse sand. Keep the area weed free and water with a fine mist spray every second day. Ensure the seed trays are in a sunny position.Locality: Grootpoort. Harvest: November 2020
