| Watering | Once a month, however to get the plant thriving it will need to be done at least once a fortnight. |
| Soil | Well-drained soil |
| Temperature | 4 degrees C and above |
| Fertilizer | Fertilize during the summer growing season with a cactus fertilizer. Dont feed during the winter. |
Hworthia glabrata special feature
Use a sharp knife and cut as close to the parent plant as possible, ensure the offset has some roots. Wait a day for the offset to dry slightly (this reduces the chances of the raw wound from rotting), then pot up in a small container using a standard potting or cactus compost mix.
