Haworthia 'spider white'
Raised geometry with white webbing over a green body 🕸️
- Asphodelaceae
- White transverse ridges
- Firm spiral rosette
- Compact slow growth
- Trade selection ‘Lock01’
Haworthia 'spider white' resembles a small handmade sculpture: every dark green leaf carries pronounced white raised lines that continue around the rosette like a fine web. Alternating dark body and bright relief creates striking depth while the plant remains discreetly compact.
It needs neither loud colour nor large scale to stand out; texture, symmetry and almost ceramic precision do the work. ‘Spider White’ is an excellent small collector choice for a shelf, desk or calm display where its detail can be appreciated at close range and its form always looks composed.
What makes it stand out
Three defining details that turn its botanical identity into real presence for a collection and interior.
Spiral precision
Triangular leaves repeat in a dense spiral with a strong architectural rhythm.
A defined collector identity
The trade name ‘Spider White’ corresponds to the protected selection ‘Lock01’, not an informal white form.
Why you’ll love it: it combines a documented cultivar identity, tactile relief and clean miniature geometry that rewards close observation.
In your spacePlacement & plant pairingsWhere it looks best and which plants complement it
Where it looks its best
Set it in a low matt pot with pale mineral top dressing against a dark or wooden background. A side view reveals the relief best, while a little clear space around the rosette keeps its miniature architecture crisp.
Plants that complement it
Pair it with plants that genuinely share its light, substrate and seasonal rhythm. Separate pots keep care precise for each one.
- Gasteria ‘Little Warty’ — broader mottling against the fine ridges.
- Haworthiopsis attenuata ‘Alba’ — related white linework at a different height.
- Astroloba spiralis — towered structure continuing the disciplined geometry.
Care at a glance
Light
Bright indirect light and gentle morning sun, not hot midday glass.
Watering
Water after the mix dries well, always keeping the rosette centre clear.
Bright shade
Mild temperatures, dry airflow and protection from frost or enclosed humidity.
Pets & children
No strong species-specific toxicology record is available; discourage chewing and handle leaf tips gently.
For this plant
Substrate & nutrition
Detailed careComplete care guideLight, drying cycle, climate, substrate and feeding in detail
Light and position
Give it abundant diffused brightness near an east-facing or bright north-facing window. Gentle morning sun supports compact form, while harsh midday exposure may fade or mark the leaves.
Correct watering
Water when the mix has dried well through almost all its depth and the pot feels lighter. Allow complete drainage and keep moisture out of the centre of the rosette.
Airflow and humidity
It needs clean air movement without cold drafts and gains nothing from misting. Ventilation becomes especially important as rosettes thicken or offsets appear.
Temperature and seasonal rhythm
It grows best in mild temperatures and slows during intense heat or winter coolness. Match watering frequency to actual growth rather than to the calendar.
Substrate
Use an aerated succulent mix with mineral components and a small proportion of fine organic material. Keep the rosette high, without burying the lower leaves.
Feeding, repotting and handling
After fresh Sybasoil, wait before adding nutrition. During active growth a mild diluted dose of Cactus & Succulent Focus, used as directed, is sufficient.
Botanical identityIdentity & natural originAccepted name, taxonomic history and natural or cultivated provenance
A trade name linked to ‘Lock01’
The RHS records Haworthiopsis limifolia Spider White (‘Lock01’ PBR). ‘Spider White’ functions as the trade name and ‘Lock01’ as the registered selection denomination.
Cultivated, not a wild form
Its strongly contrasting white ridges result from horticultural selection. A reliable public record of the originator or exact first-release year is not available.
A southern African species base
Kew accepts Haworthiopsis limifolia, native from southern Mozambique to southern Mpumalanga and growing in a subtropical biome.
From natural habitat to care: Wild limifolia grow low among rocks and neighbouring vegetation, receiving strong yet often filtered radiation with rapid drainage. This explains the cultivar’s preference for bright shade, an aerated root zone and a clear drying phase.
Greenleaf for Plant NerdsScientific facts nobody asked forBotanical detail for anyone who wants to know what lies behind the plant’s appearance
Ridges are epidermal
The white relief is formed by raised epidermal tissue, not colour applied to the surface.
The genus changed
Many plants sold as Haworthia were moved to Haworthiopsis using morphological and molecular evidence.
The rosette is spiral
The regular displacement of each new leaf distributes shade and creates its characteristic circular texture.
Leaves store moisture
Thick blades hold reserves, while the roots require oxygen between watering cycles.
Frequently asked questions
Useful answers about light, watering, seasonal rhythm and the plant’s correct identity.
01Is it Haworthia or Haworthiopsis?
The accepted modern placement is Haworthiopsis limifolia. The older name Haworthia limifolia remains common in trade.
02What does ‘Lock01’ mean?
It is the registered selection denomination linked with the trade name Spider White, distinguishing this specific clone.
03When does it need watering?
Water after the mix has dried well and the pot feels lighter, keeping the centre of the rosette dry.
04What light does it need?
It prefers bright indirect light and gentle morning sun; hot midday exposure may mark the leaves.
05What changes with the seasons?
It may slow during both heatwaves and winter coolness. Adjust moisture according to new growth.
06Is it safe for pets?
Reliable evidence specific to this cultivar is limited. Keep it out of reach of chewing as a precaution, protecting both the animal and the fragile rosette.
