How to Propagate Tiger Jaws
Faucaria tigrina
| Methods | Division, offsets, seed |
| Difficulty | Beginner |
| Best season | Spring–summer |
| Time to root | 2–4 weeks |
| Group | Succulent |
This toothy-looking succulent clusters and divides readily, similar to Haworthia. Separating rooted offsets is the easiest and most reliable method.
Division / offsets
- Remove the plant from its pot.
- Separate rosette clusters by hand, keeping roots with each.
- Pot in dry succulent mix.
When to propagate
Spring and summer.
Common problems
Division rotted. Let cut surfaces dry a day or two if separated with a cut, and water sparingly afterward.
Questions people ask
