These will be the last plants we list for a few weeks; we’ve a busy time coming up with shows, judging etc as well as repotting most of the collection.  We look forward to meeting quite a few of our eBay customers at cactus events over the summer and will be back with more new plants on Thursday 13^th June.  

Haworthia ‘Mirror Ball’ is a Japanese cultivar of Haworthia Cymbiformis ‘Obtusa’ with attractive leaf patterns.  It is easy to grow and will slowly form a small cluster.  The best description is to see the photo of the plant listed here.  It was originally taken as an offset from a plant in the collection.  It measures 5cms across and is the plant in the photo.  

• They like to grow in a bright spot preferably with some shade from strong midday sun.  They are not frost hardy, water when dry, about every two weeks. Keep dry during the winter. 
•  
•  We're now using Royal Mail Tracked 48 Post, and packing in the UK is £4.95.  This is meant to arrive in an average 48 hours according to Royal Mail.    There is no charge for any extra plants so combined shipping in the UK will never be more than £4.95 in total, if you buy one plant or more than one plants the total will still be the same £4.95.     We only charge the actual cost of postage and packing materials.

• Sorry but we can’t post outside the UK as Phytosanitary and CITES permits are too expensive and take weeks to obtain.
•  
• The plant will be sent without the pot and any loose compost,   and well packed. On receipt pot into free draining compost, we suggest a mix of two parts good quality John Innes soil based compost to one part coarse grit. Use fairly shallow pots, most cacti and succulents are not deep rooted.
• We normally stop watering a plant once it is listed on ebay as plants are much better shipped when dry and it is nothing to worry about if roots are dry on arrival.

We've been growing cacti and succulents since 1975 and regularly give talks at BCSS branch meetings and judge cactus shows during the summer. If you're not a member of the British Cactus & Succulent Society,  have a look at their website, most branches have regular monthly meetings and there's always a warm welcome for prospective new members.
