Haworthia fasciata Identification and Offset Propagation

Identification

Your plant is Haworthia fasciata (zebra plant), a small succulent. The "mini plants on vines" are actually offsets (pups) emerging from the base of the mother plant, not from flower stalks.

Flower Stalk Management

The tall stalk with tiny white flowers is a bloom spike. Clip it off when flowers fade—it won't affect the offsets.

Offset Propagation

  1. Gently separate pups from mother (they have their own roots)
  2. Plant 3-4 per small pot in cactus/succulent mix
  3. Or spread in current bowl for fuller clump
  4. Water sparingly until established
