Asphodelaceae
Raised white bands
Dark rigid leaves
Compact rosette
Cultivar with unresolved records

Haworthiopsis attenuata ‘Super Zebra’ creates a bold black-and-white contrast at a beautifully controlled scale. Dark green triangular leaves rise into a dense rosette, while broad white bands of raised tubercles form the crisp striped pattern that makes this selection instantly recognisable.

Its strongly graphic surface rewards close viewing yet remains polished enough for contemporary collections. This named zebra selection makes an excellent gift, a compact design accent, or a collector choice for anyone seeking broader, brighter white markings than the typical green form.

What makes it stand out

Three defining details that turn its botanical identity into real presence for a collection and interior.

Broad white bands

Dense rows of raised tubercles visually merge into crisp white stripes.

Dark architectural ground

Rigid triangular leaves hold the contrast within a compact rosette.

Pattern from every side

Raised texture continues around the leaves, keeping every viewing angle interesting.

Why you’ll love it: it delivers the classic zebra look in a bolder, cleaner and more collector-focused form that reads instantly even from a distance.

In your spacePlacement & plant pairingsWhere it looks best and which plants complement it

In your space

Where it looks its best

Show it in a plain black, white or natural clay pot with clear space around the rosette. A shelf near eye level reveals the white bands and raised surface most effectively.

Plant pairings

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’ — glossy mottled texture with a similarly measured rhythm.
Haworthia retusa — translucent windows against the white ridges.
Peperomia ferreyrae — finer green foliage sharing a preference for protected brightness.

Care at a glance

Light

Bright indirect light or gentle morning sun; protect from harsh midday exposure.

Watering

Water after the mix has dried well, leaving no moisture in the crown.

Bright shade

Mild temperatures, airflow and a drier rhythm through the cool period.

Pets & children

No strong species-specific toxicity record is available; discourage chewing and ingestion.

Detailed careComplete care guideLight, drying cycle, climate, substrate and feeding in detail

Light and position

Choose an east-facing window or a position with abundant diffused light. Gentle sun supports a compact shape, but hot glass can bleach or scorch the tips.

Correct watering

Wait until most of the mix is dry, then water evenly at the base. Let it drain completely and remove any moisture caught in the centre of the rosette.

Airflow and humidity

Air should move between the leaves and around the neck. Avoid frequent misting and decorative covers that trap humidity.

Temperature and seasonal rhythm

Growth is usually most active in mild spring and autumn conditions. It slows in strong heat or cold, requiring a longer wait between waterings.

Substrate

Use a porous succulent mix with pumice or another stable mineral component. The pot must drain freely and should not be excessively large.

Feeding, repotting and handling

After fresh Sybasoil, do not add fertiliser immediately. Later give diluted Cactus & Succulent Focus only during active new growth.

Botanical identityIdentity & natural originAccepted name, taxonomic history and natural or cultivated provenance

The accepted base is attenuata

Kew accepts the species as Haworthiopsis attenuata, with the older Haworthia attenuata as a homotypic synonym. Its native range lies in South Africa’s southern Cape Province.

Super Zebra, Alba and Wide Zebra

The RHS lists Haworthiopsis attenuata ‘Super Zebra’ and gives Haworthiopsis fasciata ‘Alba’ as a synonym. “Wide Zebra” also circulates in the trade.

An unresolved cultivar record

The RHS marks the name status as unresolved and publishes no primary breeder or selection year. We therefore assign no specific cross, country of origin or breeder without evidence.

From natural habitat to care: Wild H. attenuata occupies protected South African sites where rigid leaves and tubercles combine water storage with moderated exposure. The cultivar retains the same basic rhythm: diffused intensity, an aerated root zone and distinct drying periods.

Greenleaf for Plant NerdsScientific facts nobody asked forBotanical detail for anyone who wants to know what lies behind the plant’s appearance

White marks are three-dimensional

They are not merely pigment; the tubercles rise above the epidermis and change the leaf texture.

Attenuata and fasciata are often confused

The names are exchanged in horticulture, but Kew treats them as separate accepted species.

The rosette can become a clump

Over time side rosettes may appear at the base, gradually creating a denser group.

Flowers remain understated

A slender stalk may carry small tubular white-green flowers, far quieter than the foliage.

Frequently asked questions

Useful answers about light, watering, seasonal rhythm and the plant’s correct identity.

01Is it Haworthia ‘Alba’ or Super Zebra?

The safest current presentation is Haworthiopsis attenuata ‘Super Zebra’. “Alba” and “Wide Zebra” circulate as trade or synonymous labels.

02How much sun can it take?

Gentle morning or late-day sun after acclimation, not prolonged hot midday exposure behind glass.

03When does it need water?

When the mix has dried deeply and the pot feels noticeably lighter.

04Why do the white bands look less bold?

New leaves in very low brightness may elongate and appear greener. Improve the position gradually.

05Are side rosettes a problem?

No. Clump formation is natural and may be left intact or divided once mature.

06Is the cultivar breeder known?

No public primary record documenting a breeder and year was found, and the RHS marks the name as unresolved.
