FAQs - Frequently Asked Questions

1. What types of succulents do you sell?

I specialize in a variety of succulents, including Euphorbia Francoisii, with a particular focus on Haworthia.

2. Where do you source your plants from?

I source my plants from trusted growers and personally care for them before listing them for sale.

3. Do you ship plants to other countries?

Currently i only ship within Singapore. At the moment i do not have any plans in shipping to other countries

4. How do you package plants for shipping?

Plants will be left to air dry for a couple of days before being packed and sent out via courier. However, for plants of high value or with multiple purchases above $50, I will contact you and personally deliver them within 1-3 working days.
Do note that plants received on your end will be Rooted in potting mix.
Unless stated otherwise in my listings, 'barerooted' means the plants will be couriered to you without roots and will not come with pots or soil mix.

5. How about urgent orders, able to deliver on the same day?

Same-day delivery is available for urgent orders upon request. I can be flexible and offer this service without any additional expensive charges.

6. Why are your plants more expensive compared to others?
My pricing reflects the quality and care put into growing each plant:

Each plant in my collection is rooted and cultivated for a minimum of 2-3 months, with some even growing for up to 6-12 months. These plants come directly from my personal collection, ensuring they are well-established. This means you won't need to spend time rooting them yourself. Caring for a stable, well-established plant will eliminate over 90% of potential problems.
Prices are determined by the size, color, and variegation patterns of the plants. Naturally, rarer and more vibrant plants grown from unique seed-grown specimens are priced higher. All these details will be discussed in my blog post.
I only list plants that are plump, firmly rooted, and exhibiting new leaf growth, ensuring they are in excellent condition.
I avoid using flimsy pots, as they can damage the root system when moving the plant..
I use high-quality, well-draining soil mixes specially formulated for Haworthia, with added slow-release fertilizer to promote healthy growth.

1. How much sunlight do my Haworthia need?

Haworthia, prefer bright shaded light. Direct sun can cause stress to the plant and they may get sun-burned, however for my own personal recommendations and experience is using proper grow-light would be highly recommended as it would give a much more stable source of light. Regarding this topic i will have it covered in another article in my blog.

2. How often should I water my Haworthia?

Water thoroughly only when the soil feels dry, and be careful not to overwater. With my soil mix, the soil typically dries out within 5-7 days. Please refer to my shop listings for detailed instructions on this.

3. What is the best soil for Haworthia and other succulents?

I use a well-draining full gritty mix and slow-release fertilizer to promote healthy overall growth.

4. Why is the bottom leaves turning soft or mushy?

It depends on the situation, as Haworthia often 'consume' or absorb their older lower leaves as nutrients, which then slowly dry up. If you notice 1-2 leaves turning mushy and watery (which can be detected by pressing lightly), remove them with a pair of tweezers and let the affected area dry for 1-2 days.
In another scenario, if multiple leaves are turning mushy, this likely indicates a root rot issue. I will cover this topic in more detail in another article on my blog.

5. I am completely new to this and find most of the above information difficult to understand.

Don't be shy, feel free to contact me directly! I'll be more than happy to help you with any issues or chat about anything related to Haworthias.
