Haworthia Maya Nishiki S-21, Cactus Nishi, Japan is a 4cm rooted specimen.
• Form: Acaulescent, compact offset displaying dynamic star-shaped radial symmetry. The foliage expands in an open, multi-tiered habit, showcasing an intricate architectural silhouette typical of select Japanese cultivars.
• Leaves: Lanceolate-attenuate to narrowly deltoid, fleshy, and gracefully recurved. Each leaf tapers into a slender, acute apex crowned with a delicate terminal awn. Margins and prominent dorsal keels are armed with a regular, comb-like row of sharp, pellucid-white denticulate teeth.
• Texture & Windows: The adaxial leaf facets feature semi-pellucid, lineate fenestrations traversed by fine longitudinal veins and subtle subterranean cross-bars. The leaf cuticle is smooth and lustrous, allowing light to illuminate the translucent internal tissue.
• Color: An elegant variegated chimera displaying longitudinal bands of ivory, cream, and soft chartreuse against a sage-to-emerald green ground. Under high light and lean watering, the outer foliage and toothy margins blush with luminous coral-pink, rose, and copper-bronze anthocyanin stress pigmentation.
