It’s a Haworthia kegani X cooperi var. venusta!
The macro shots are particularly stunning - what a lovely specimen!
Also, is that glass used instead of decorative stones in the pot? Obsidian perhaps? What an interesting idea that I now want to steal for some of my plants too!
Thank you so much! Always loved taking macro shots, it’s been really fun taking some of the plants and practicing a bit.
Yes, I’m using glass! I haven’t seen anyone using them either, was a bit nervous that it could prevent growth with so much light beaming through them. Just been slowly testing it out for the last 4-5 months on a few of them!
Someone cracking windshields for their succulent collection is a funny visual to imagine 😂
I don’t think the glass would be too bad in general after having used it for a bit. I’ve been seeing growth coming out from them, the Alien in particular has been doing really well. I have been a lil’ selective about what pieces I throw on just in case!
I bought it from KongerGarden over at Etsy!
Unfortunately they’re sold out of it right now, but just in case the listing is here
I don’t have another cooperi to compare the growth to(….yet 😂) I feel it has been a slow grower though!
Item Description You will receive living plants of Haworthia kegani X cooperi var. venusta (1.5-2 inches/4-5 cm). *Suggestion*: When you receive the plants, use dry and breathable soil, put them in a cool and ventilated place for 3-5 days. And then water them by soaking from the bottom of the pot,
