Well, I didn't have any small pots I liked when I got the plants but I had a bunch of coco shells. After this last rainy season the shells are coming apart a bit so I will probably have to move them before summer. We have a lot of Jicara gourds that grow here and they are a bit stronger than coconut shells so maybe I'll move them into one of those. I tried putting another Haworthia in the ground but the slugs destroyed it in days. When I was out looking at this one I noticed that one other that I have in a coco shell has been slimed and eaten by something. I couldn't find any slugs hiding nearby and they are sitting on a shelf of the BBQ which I had hoped would discourage slugs. I think it is a type of Haworthia cooperai from the faded tag but there is so little left I can't be sure. I hate slugs!
