Jelly plant looking for new home

Haworthia cooperi flower bw 3.jpg

Some succulents are growing faster and bigger that I expected. I got this Haworthia Cooperi some years ago and it looked like the one on the photos. Since then, and it has been probably 7 years or so, it has been growing and spreading and nothing can stop it. I have been keeping in a bit hidden from the sun as it gets sunburn easily and most of the time I forget about it. It gets water once in a while, some rain and it turned to a giant.

I am not a fan of Haworthia flowers. They are small, beige and leave lots of mess when they dry up and drop. But the leaves are amazing! Light green with some darker green pattern and see though tips. They look like they are made of jelly. Very pretty!

This little kiddo will go to a new hope soon. The mother plant constantly produces tons of those little offshoots and then often break when I move the plant around. Most of the time they already have their own roots too. A weed!

Below you can see part of the mother plant with at least 30 little pups around. Every year I have a few to give away.

Your cat's look is gold!.

The plant is beautiful. I haven't had any succulents in a very long time. Well, only some aloe... I hope sometime soon I can try again.

Thanks! :)

You should get something easy and forgiving. Some succulents will die if you look at them weird :p

Hahahaha. I'm a lousy plant mother. I love them and sometimes they love me back, but I haven't had much luck.
I must try again with something very forgiving.

The photos are awsome, I'm curious about the colorful verson. Is this in-door plant? I would love to buy one for my wife.

I keep mine outside, but it can be grown inside too as long as she gets enough light, but not direct sun.

Here is the colour version :)

Haworthia looks great in black and white!

But it is clear from Suzy's look that she is sure that she is prettier! :-)
