This is the reason Haworthia retusa is also called Star Cactus. It is also a member of the Asphodelaceae family and is sometimes called Aloe Retusa.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The leaves of Haworthia retusa have a smooth surface and appear translucent with signs of veining. There are no tubercles or spines to be found on the leaves which can grow up to 3.2-inches (8cm) long and 0.8-inches (2cm) wide. Star Cactus\u2019 leaves are thick and fleshy and can store water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The rosettes are composed of 10 to 15 leaves that measure 5.9-inches (15cm) across. Flowers have a whitish color with a tubular shape and bloom sometime in late spring to summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Haworthia retusa can grow up to a height of 3-inches (7.5cm) and 6-inches (15cm) wide. The succulent is native to South Africa.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_46 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\"><\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"ez-toc-toggle-icon-1\"><label for=\"item-69f1d7f5d9324\" aria-label=\"Table of Content\"><span style=\"display: flex;align-items: center;width: 35px;height: 30px;justify-content: center;direction:ltr;\"><svg style=\"fill: #36af73;color:#36af73\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #36af73;color:#36af73\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseprofile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/label><input  type=\"checkbox\" id=\"item-69f1d7f5d9324\"><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/it\/haworthia-retusa\/#general-information\" title=\"General Information:\">General Information:<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/it\/haworthia-retusa\/#how-to-grow-and-care-for-haworthia-retusa\" title=\"How to Grow and Care for Haworthia Retusa\">How to Grow and Care for Haworthia Retusa<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/it\/haworthia-retusa\/#how-to-propagate-haworthia-retusa\" title=\"How to Propagate Haworthia Retusa\">How to Propagate Haworthia Retusa<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/it\/haworthia-retusa\/#frequently-asked-questions\" title=\"Frequently Asked Questions\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"general-information\"><\/span>General Information:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Also known as: Star Cactus, Aloe retusa<br>Plant Family: Asphodelacea<br>Origin: South Africa<br>Height: 3-inches (7.5cm)<br>Exposure: Partial to full sunlight for 3 to 5 hours<br>Water Needs: Frequent watering schedule during the summer months; very little to no watering in the winter or cold season.<br>Soil Type: Cactus soil mixed with sand<br>Soil pH: Acidic (6.1 to 6.5 pH)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-grow-and-care-for-haworthia-retusa\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-to-grow-and-care-for-haworthia-retusa\"><\/span><strong>How to Grow and Care for Haworthia Retusa<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Haworthia-Retusa-care-and-grow-1.png\" alt=\"Haworthia Retusa care and grow\" class=\"wp-image-2734\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Haworthia-Retusa-care-and-grow-1.png 800w, https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Haworthia-Retusa-care-and-grow-1-300x188.png 300w, https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Haworthia-Retusa-care-and-grow-1-768x480.png 768w, https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Haworthia-Retusa-care-and-grow-1-585x366.png 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Haworthia retusa is a slow-growing succulent that is easy to maintain provided you follow proper guidelines for sunlight, watering, and fertilization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As an indoor succulent, Star Cactus would be an ideal addition to your window sill or veranda. If grown outdoors, Haworthia retusa would wonderfully adorn a small succulent garden or a rock garden with some cacti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Star Cactus is not a cold-hardy succulent. If you live in a region where the temperatures drop below 20\u00b0 F (-6.7\u00b0 C), it is recommended to place the plant in a container and brought indoors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-sunlight\">1. &nbsp; Sunlight<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Haworthia retusa can thrive with full to partial sun. If grown outdoors, place Star Cactus in an area that receives 3 to 5 hours of sunlight. Regular sun exposure will cause the leaves to develop a nice, reddish color and maintain thickness. If the succulent is grown indoors, place it near a window that receives sunlight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-watering\">2. &nbsp; Watering<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Haworthia retusa is susceptible to the dangers of overwatering. To keep the succulent healthy, give it water only when the soil is dry to the touch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Haworthia-Retusa-plant-1.png\" alt=\"Haworthia Retusa plant\" class=\"wp-image-2736\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Haworthia-Retusa-plant-1.png 800w, https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Haworthia-Retusa-plant-1-300x188.png 300w, https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Haworthia-Retusa-plant-1-768x480.png 768w, https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Haworthia-Retusa-plant-1-585x366.png 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In the summer months, keep the soil moist but not visibly wet. During the colder months, the soil will remain moist much longer and Star Cactus will not require as much water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overwatering can lead to root rot. If the rotting is not contained, the fungal infection will spread throughout the plant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-fertilization\">3. &nbsp; Fertilization<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Haworthia retusa should only receive fertilizer that is diluted with water to reduce its strength by 50%. Star Cactus is best fertilized only once during the growing season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-pot-and-soil\">4. &nbsp; Pot and Soil<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Star Cactus is often used as a decorative succulent plant. In some cases, growers of Haworthia retusa <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/it\/come-piantare-le-piante\/\">plant the succulent<\/a> in little teacups or baby shoes. The best container for Star Cactus is a pot that measures 3.9-inches to 5.9-inches (10cm to 15cm) and has good drainage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fill the pot with well-draining soil such as cactus and add sand to further improve the level of drainage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-propagate-haworthia-retusa\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-to-propagate-haworthia-retusa\"><\/span>How to Propagate Haworthia Retusa<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Haworthia-Retusa-succulent-plant-1.png\" alt=\"Haworthia Retusa succulent plant\" class=\"wp-image-2735\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Haworthia-Retusa-succulent-plant-1.png 800w, https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Haworthia-Retusa-succulent-plant-1-300x188.png 300w, https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Haworthia-Retusa-succulent-plant-1-768x480.png 768w, https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Haworthia-Retusa-succulent-plant-1-585x366.png 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Haworthia retusa is an eye-catching succulent that will make for a good topic of conversation. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/it\/come-coltivare-succulenti\/\">Succulent growers like to propagate<\/a> Star Cactus to add more color and shape to their miniature garden.
