Oh my goodness, have you seen the Haworthia coarctata, now reclassified as Haworthiopsis coarctata? It's an absolutely adorable variety of the Haworthia genus! This coarctata species name, which means "compressed" or "pressed together" in Latin, refers to the tightly-packed leaves that wrap around its stem-like Mother Nature's embrace. 

This slow-growing flowering succulent, with its dark green leaves boasting white ribbing, will steal your heart from the moment you lay your eyes on it. But don't let its demure appearance fool you; when exposed to strong sunlight, these leaves can turn into deep brown or purplish-red hues that most people love. 

Its long stems stand tall with short curved leaves packed tightly around them - so densely that people often confuse it with Haworthia reinwardtii. However, coarctata has wider and fatter leaves that give it a more robust look. At full maturity, this low maintenance plant can reach up to 8 inches in height and produce a 12-inch flower stalk in spring or summer - talk about impressive!  

 Native to South Africa's Eastern Cape, this haworthia succulent is perfect for putting in decorating pots.  

Watering Needs 

Although haworthia succulents are commonly associated with desert environments, some varieties such as the Haworthia coarctata prefer to be watered using the "soak and dry" technique. This involves thoroughly watering the plant before allowing it to completely dry out between watering sessions.  

Both potted and outdoor haworthia should receive a deep soak once or twice a month during their growth periods, ensuring proper drainage so that the roots don't become waterlogged.  

Avoid watering your outdoor haworthia plant when it's raining or during winter months. 

Light Requirements 

The Haworth coarctata can flourish in hot and sunny conditions, needing a minimum of 5-6 hours of bright, indirect light daily, but can tolerate some direct sunlight. 

Too much direct sunlight can cause the leaves to burn, so it's important to provide shade during the hottest part of the day. If this haworthia succulent is not receiving enough bright light, it can cause discoloration, an elongated abnormal appearance, as well as limit its growth.  

When grown indoors, place it in the sunniest place in your house. This succulent may benefit from shade in consistently hot climates. It is ideal to grow this Haworthia coarctata in a west- or south-facing window. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The Haworthia coarctata prefers sandy, well-drained soil, as excess moisture can promote root and stem rot. Planet Desert specializes in succulents and has specialized succulent potting soil that includes an organic substrate with mycorrhizae to help with the growth of a healthy root system to help your succulents thrive. As an okay alternative, you can create your own potting mix by combining equal portions of perlite, coarse sand, and good natural potting soil. 

And let's not forget about fertilizing! Your haworthias only need a tiny bit applied once a year in springtime with a natural organic fertilizer that has lower doses of NPK (5-10-5). No harsh chemicals here, folks - just pure, natural goodness that lasts longer and encourages nutrient absorption, so your succulent stays happy as a clam.  

Hardiness Zones & More 

keep this Haworthia coarctata at warm temperatures, 65-75 F at all times. It doesn't like humidity because it is adapted to a dry, hot climate. 

It is an outdoor tropical succulent that can be grown in USDA zones 10 and 11. In cooler zones, it can be kept outdoors during the summer and brought in as the temperature drops to protect it from freezing temperatures.  

Be sure to add this Haworthia coarctata to your home or garden and enjoy its low-maintenance care while admiring its impressive display year after year.

Great toy for two big German Shepherds
Color: Brown
We only buy Tuffy dog toys now because we have one German Shepherd, and we often watch our daughter's GSD too, and the two dogs tear anything else apart in minutes. Tuffy toys are BY FAR superior to any other dog toy we have tried. That being said, some Tuffy toys seem to last longer than others with the two dogs, and this one has been pretty good! We've had it for a few weeks now, and it's just now starting to show some white (stuffing) where their teeth have pierced the top of the toy. That's pretty good, considering they play tug of war with it and can tear into toys pretty hard. If it were just our one dog, I think it would last a lot longer because it's the tug of war between the two of them that does them in faster. Even so, when they do manage to tear the fabric in vulnerable places, I just pull the stuffing out from that area, and they continue to play with it, sometimes for months! This one is better than some other Tuffy toys too because it has lots of areas where there is already more fabric and reinforced seams than stuffing, like all the legs on the side, the tail, and even the pincers. So far, they haven't been able to tear into those at all. Just a bit on the top of the head, and so far, no stuffing coming out yet. This one is a big win for us! When they finally do do it in, I will turn around and buy another Scorch the Scorpion right away!

Tuffy Desert Phrog vs Lola
Color: Green Leaping Phrog, Color: Green Leaping Phrog
Just a little background about my dog. Lola is a 5 year old corgi-terrier mix with jaws of steal. Lesser stuffed toys have met death in under 5 minutes. Tennis balls last less than a day. Rope toys that do not have frayed ends might possibly last a week (frayed ends never stand a chance). The only toys that she has not managed to destroy are her Kong, a Kong bone, and a racquet ball. I figured I would document the life span of Phrog (Tuffy Scale: 9) before making my final judgement on it’s durability. Day 1 - Phrog Arrives! Lola was very excited about the arrival of Phrog and immediately went into destruction mode. Phrog did sustain a little damage before we were able to bribe her to drop Phrog and get her understand that he was more fun to play fetch with than to mutilate. The white you see in the picture is not stuffing, but the second layer of defense for the toy. The fact that my living room is not full of stuffing and I didn’t have to pry a squeaker out of my dog’s mouth, I’d say Phrog wins the Day 1 challenge. Day 9 - Phrog has sustained a little more damage, but not anything life threatening. His side wound is a little bit larger and one of his eyes is half ripped off. For safety reasons, I am going to finish removing the damaged eye and some loose thread from various places. Other than that, Phrog is still holding up and holds top toy spot. I have also found him very useful for dealing with anxiety; the squeaker can often distract her from her stressors and Phrog takes the abuse of her frustrations. Day 16 - Phrog is starting to show signs of mortal wounds. Lola has made it through the thicker layer around his arm and I can see the stuffing. It is only a matter of time before gets all the way through. Day 60 - Phrog still lives!!! I have done some surgery on Phrog to reinforce the fabric around his arms, but Franken-Phrog is still the favorite of all of the toys. She will even get brave enough to rescue Phrog from the evil vacuum when he is kidnapped and tortured. I am thinking about purchasing Phrog II for the inevitable day when Phrog goes off to the pet toyland in the sky, but for now, there is only one Phrog for Lola.

Long lasting play toy!
Color: Multicolor
Tuffy toys in general are great and they are a pretty good deal on Amazon. They are not indestructible, and if your dogs use them as chew toys they will eventually break through. My dogs have had this Armadillo since Christmas (and they do chew on it some) and the only thing missing is an ear. They like to play tug-of-war with it a lot. This is a bigger toy, but even my forty pound dog plays with it. I would not recommend this toy for dogs smaller than Border Collie size. You can make these Tuffy toys last longer if you don't allow your dogs to chew them--when your dogs starts chewing on non-chew toys trade them for a chew toy and when you catch your dog chewing on a chew-approved toy reward them for chewing. Eventually your dog will catch on and realize that if they want to chew there are certain toys that are allowed for that. In addition to being a great play toy this is a pretty cute toy too!

Not Tuff
Color: Black Yellow Phrog, Color: Black Yellow Phrog
Absolutely terrible and not “tuff” at all. My chocolate lab had this thing destroyed in less than two hours. I would not recommend these for the price.
