Haworthia attenuata Enon, also called zebra haworthia, is a rare compact succulent in the Asphodelaceae family native to South Africa's Eastern Cape region. It forms tight rosettes of dark green, lance-shaped leaves covered in raised white tubercles that create a zebra-like banding pattern, and the Enon form is especially noted for its vivid, well-defined markings.
Individual rosettes stay compact at 3–5 inches in diameter, with a clumping growth habit that gradually fills its pot with multiple rosettes over time. The white tubercles stand out against the dark foliage, creating strong contrast. As offsets emerge from the base of the mother rosette, it becomes an increasingly full display without demanding extra space or attention.
It releases oxygen at night, making it suitable for bedrooms and indoor spaces where air circulation matters. You can leave it up to ten days without water.
Move it outside in summer to a bright, sheltered spot with indirect light, but bring it in or cover it during rain. Separate the offsets that form at the base and pot them individually in well-draining succulent mix for straightforward propagation. It is non-toxic to cats and dogs. The slow growth rate means minimal fertilizing is needed—a light balanced application once in spring and once in summer is all it requires.

Haworthia attenuata Enon grows well in medium light or bright indirect light and tolerates partial sun, but scorches in harsh south-facing windows.
Water it every 2–3 weeks in spring and summer, reducing to once a month in winter, always letting the soil dry fully between waterings.
Haworthia Enon does best in fast-draining cactus and succulent soil combined with extra perlite at a 1:1 ratio.
It prefers temperatures between 65–85°F and should be protected from frost below 40°F.

Q: How large does it stay?
A: Haworthia Enon rosettes typically reach 3–5 inches in diameter and remain compact. The plant offsets and forms an attractive clump over time but stays manageable in size.
Q: Can Haworthia Enon propagate easily?
