Origin
The Haworthia fasciata 'Alba', also known as the White Zebra plant, originates from the continent of Africa. The plant is predominantly found in the south of this continent, specifically in South Africa. It belongs to the Asphodelaceae family and is mainly found in the region of the Little Karoo in the Eastern Cape.

Characteristics
The Haworthia fasciata 'Alba' is celebrated for its decorative appearance, often reminiscent of a zebra due to the striped patterns on the leaves. The leaves are thick and fleshy and have a beautiful green colour. The white bands on the leaves, the reason for the name 'Alba', clearly distinguish the plant from other species. The plant remains relatively small, making it a popular choice in the realm of houseplants.

Care
In terms of care, the Haworthia fasciata 'Alba' requires little maintenance. The plant performs best in bright, indirect light and can grow both indoors and outdoors, provided it is protected against frost. The plant prefers well-draining soil, ideal for Xeriscaping. Watering should be done sporadically, as the plant can be particularly susceptible to root rot in the winter period. Finally, the Haworthia fasciata 'Alba' can propagate itself by forming rosettes.
