Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Water thoroughly when the soil is dry, ensuring excess water drains away.

Overwatering is a common cause of root rot, so err on the side of underwatering, especially during cooler months. Reduce watering significantly in winter.

Pruning is generally minimal for Aloe haworthioides. Remove any dead, damaged, or yellowing leaves at the base of the plant using clean, sharp shears. This helps maintain the plant's tidy appearance and prevents disease.

Avoid excessive pruning, as it can stress the plant.

Propagate Aloe haworthioides through offsets (pups) that grow around the base of the mature plant. Gently remove offsets with roots attached using a clean knife.

Allow the cut end to callus over for a few days before planting in well-draining succulent soil. Water sparingly after planting.

Repot your Aloe haworthioides every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current container. Choose a pot with drainage holes and use a well-draining succulent or cactus potting mix. Repot in spring or early summer.

Avoid repotting during the plant's dormant winter period.
