Thanks for sharing the pics. Very nice variegation, especially the orange color. I am always facinated by these.

Can you save one plant's money and buy a better camera. :hitmyself:/>

Wow, this is really an expensive hobby! Are the variegated plants more difficult to grow?

A big welcome to this forum sbobbie.

Oh yes they grow much slower than the normal green ones, and many cannot take our Singapore direct sun , they grow on filtered sunlight, or semi-shaded. Most variegated haworthia is ok with reflected sunlight.(eg, refleced sunlight from opp. block)
