I have two Haworthia attenuata (one a pup of the other, which I potted up separately for insurance sake last summer) and a H. coarctata that I've had for three years. They are currently inside near my east facing glass balcony doors. I watered them very little this winter, because I thought I read somewhere that they were winter dormant, but I did a search on this forum just now that seemed to indicate they are actually summer dormant.
Was I wrong? I'm planning to water them weekly-ish during spring - the 'mother' plant has flowered for me before and I was hoping to get it to do it again - but if they really are summer dormant, when do I stop watering?
Even though their flowers aren't that showy, I like these little guys and hope I haven't messed them up too much.
