× Alworthia is a hybrid genus created from the crossbreeding of Aloe and Haworthia species, bringing together traits from both parent genera. For basic care, × Alworthia requires bright, indirect light and a well-draining soil mix. Moderate watering is necessary, allowing the soil to dry out between watering sessions. It thrives in warm temperatures but must be protected from frost. Common challenges include overwatering leading to root rot, pest infestations such as mealybugs, and leaf scorch from too much direct sunlight. Seasonally, × Alworthia may need reduced watering in the winter and should be kept out of harsh summer sun.
