Haworthia cuspidata (Succulents)

This succulent is considered a cross between the Haworthia retusa and Haworthia cymbiformis species. It is one of the most elegant species of the genus, characterized by graceful rosettes with fleshy foliage of a lively lime green color, very bright, enriched by small translucent areas, that make the light pass trough, and allow the plant to survive very well, even in conditions of low light (hence the common name of "star window plant"), making it a succulent particularly suitable for indoor environments. The small leaves have the shape of a wedge - a characteristic that gave them the name of 'cuspidata', from Latin - "pointed". It is a strong and resistant plant, which occupies little space and does not present difficulties in cultivation. Perhaps not many know, that the leaves inside them are full of aloe juice, commonly used to treat skin irritations, as well as, in alternative medicine - even for various other ailments: from fever to ulcers!
