Haworthia tessellata is a small, slow-growing succulent native to southern Africa. It is known for its distinctive, thick, triangular leaves that form a rosette. The leaves are dark green to brownish and feature a unique, tessellated (checkerboard-like) pattern on their surface, which gives the plant its name. This pattern helps it blend into its natural rocky surroundings. Haworthia tessellata prefers indirect light and well-draining soil, making it an excellent and easy-to-care-for houseplant.

Haworthia tessellata is ‘n klein, stadig-groeiende vetplant wat in Suidelike Afrika voorkom. Dit is bekend vir sy kenmerkende, dik, driehoekige blare wat in ‘n roset groei. Die blare is donkergroen tot bruinig en het ‘n unieke, geteëlde (blokvormige) patroon op die oppervlak, wat aan die plant sy naam gee. Hierdie patroon help dit om in sy natuurlike rotsagtige omgewing weg te smelt. Haworthia tessellata verkies indirekte lig en goed dreinerende grond, en is ‘n uitstekende, maklik-versorgbare huisplant.

Shipping Policy
**Shipping Policy for Plants**
At MantisPlants, we take great care in preparing and shipping your plants to ensure they arrive in the best possible condition.
Bare Root Shipping
All plants are typically shipped bare-rooted, meaning that the soil is carefully removed from the roots to prevent any damage during transit. We wash the roots to remove any remaining soil and allow them to dry before wrapping them gently in tissue paper. This process helps minimize stress on the plant and ensures its safe arrival to you.
Pot Shipping Option (Not Recommended)
While we do offer the option of shipping some plants in their pots, this is generally not advisable. Shipping a plant in its pot can result in root damage due to movement and stress during transit. The roots can become constricted or disturbed, which can harm the plant. If you are still interested in this option, it must be arranged in advance with the vendor, and we will take extra precautions to pack it as securely as possible. However, we highly recommend the bare-root shipping method to ensure the best possible outcome for your plant.
**Careful Packaging**
We take pride in our packing process to ensure your plant arrives safely. Every plant is carefully packed, with extra attention to detail to protect the roots and foliage. We take care to secure the plant during transit, and make sure it is cushioned and stabilized inside the shipping box to avoid damage.
Our goal is to make sure your plant reaches you healthy and ready to thrive! If you have any questions about the shipping process, feel free to reach out to us.

Echevaria Malgan Black Swan (with Pot)
Oudtshoorn, WC
Echeveria ‘Malgan Black Swan’
A striking collector’s Echeveria prized for its beautifully shaped rosette and dramatic colouring. Its thick, pointed leaves develop attractive shades of grey-green, mauve, deep purple and burgundy, with the colours becoming richer under bright light and cooler conditions. The powdery coating on the leaves gives the plant an elegant, almost frosted appearance.
Care: Grow in bright light with some morning sun for the best colour and compact growth. Plant in a very well-draining succulent mix and water thoroughly only once the soil has dried. Protect from prolonged heavy rain and extreme afternoon heat.
Interesting fact: The dramatic dark colouring can change considerably throughout the year, making every season slightly different.
A beautiful and unusual must-have for Echeveria and rare succulent collectors.

Turbinicarpus Pseudopectinatus
Oudtshoorn, WC
A true collector’s gem, Turbinicarpus pseudopectinatus is a small, slow-growing cactus prized for its neat, geometric form and striking spine patterns. Its flattened, grey-green body is covered in fine, comb-like (pectinate) spines that create an almost sculpted, symmetrical appearance. In spring, it surprises with delicate pink to lavender flowers that add a soft contrast to its structured look.
Ideal for collectors and small-space displays, this species thrives in bright light with careful, minimal watering—making it both rewarding and low-maintenance when grown correctly.
Interesting fact:
The name “pseudopectinatus” means “false comb-like,” referring to its spines that resemble those of related species—but with subtle differences that make it highly sought after by enthusiasts and collectors.SKU: n/a -

Haworthia Retusa Variegated in Pot
Oudtshoorn, WC
Haworthia retusa Variegated
A beautiful and highly desirable form of the South African Haworthia retusa. It forms compact rosettes of thick, triangular leaves with characteristic translucent “windows”. The variegated form develops striking cream, yellow or white markings mixed with green, making every plant unique.
🌱 Care: Bright filtered light or approximately 50–60% shade; avoid harsh midday sun, especially on the pale variegated sections. Use a very well-draining mineral-rich succulent mix and allow it to dry between waterings.
✨ Interesting fact: The transparent leaf windows allow light to penetrate into the leaf—an adaptation associated with Haworthias that grow partly recessed into the soil.
⭐ A must-have for Haworthia collectors, particularly specimens showing strong, balanced variegation.
