Notes
Fairy washboard (Haworthiopsis limifolia) is a succulent for containers and low maintenance gardens. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 10 and warmer, down to about 30°F (-1°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes full or part sun and dry, sandy or loamy soil. It is drought tolerant and stays evergreen, so it looks good all year.
Pairs well with Echeveria, Lady fingers, and Hens and chicks.
