Haworthia turgida is a delightful, compact succulent that’s is very easy to care for. It has plump, finger-like leaves with soft, pointed tips, forming loose rosettes that cluster together. The leaves have a soft, translucent green color with a smooth, sea-glass-like texture, accented by subtle veins and speckled patterns. These details give the plant an almost magical, crystal-like appearance.
One of the most fascinating features of Haworthia turgida is its ability to change color depending on the light. In bright, indirect sunlight, the green foliage takes on a beautiful reddish tint, adding a dynamic element to its appearance. When placed in shadier spots, the leaves return to their vibrant green hue. With its compact size—reaching only 3 to 4 inches across at maturity—this succulent is perfect for small spaces, terrariums, or as part of a larger arrangement with other drought-tolerant plants.
Haworthia turgida grows by producing offsets, which emerge at the base of the main rosettes. These offsets expand outward, forming a dense mat of closely packed plants. This growth habit makes it ideal for filling in spaces in containers or rock gardens.
Native to South Africa, Haworthia turgida thrives in arid environments and is naturally adapted to handle a variety of light conditions. This adaptability, combined with its striking looks, makes it an excellent choice for both beginners and seasoned plant enthusiasts.

Haworthia turgida thrives in bright, indirect light but can also adapt to partial shade. While it enjoys a bit of sun, too much direct sunlight can scorch its delicate leaves. If you want to encourage the reddish tones in its foliage, give it access to more intense, filtered light, but be ready to move it to a shadier spot if the leaves start to fade or scorch.
This succulent loves warm weather and thrives in temperatures between 60°F and 80°F. It doesn’t tolerate frost, so if you live in a cooler climate, make sure to bring it indoors during the winter months. While it’s not picky about humidity, it’s best suited for dry conditions, making it perfect for most indoor spaces.
To keep Haworthia turgida happy, plant it in a fast-draining soil mix, like one designed for succulents or cacti. A pot with drainage holes is essential to prevent the roots from sitting in water. Place it somewhere with good airflow to keep the plant healthy and reduce the risk of fungal issues.
Like most succulents, this plant prefers to dry out completely between waterings. Using the "soak and dry" method is the best approach: water thoroughly, allowing any excess to drain away, then wait until the soil is completely dry before watering again. Overwatering is one of the few ways to harm this resilient little plant, as it can lead to root rot or invite pests.
In the spring or early summer, a happy Haworthia turgida may produce delicate flower stalks with tiny, tubular white blooms. While these flowers are modest compared to the plant’s striking foliage, they’re a charming bonus for careful caretakers.
Haworthia turgida is non-toxic to pets and humans, making it a safe choice for households with curious animals or small children.

Compelling - Beautifully done
Format: Kindle
I was surprised how much I enjoyed reading this. Ms Beaton has done an amazing job of storytelling.
So thankful for the recommendation from John Warner - The “BibliOracle” of the Chicago Tribune.
Several male members of my family worked in the Tar Sands projects over the last 30 years - mostly on Oil Exploration and the crew management side. But rumors about the rough environment were confirmed in this book. Reading this explains why one important family marriage failed from the “Wild West” behavior that took place there.
As Ms Beaton acknowledged, this work provided important income for those who worked the Tar Sands projects. My family included.
But the harm to the First Nations People and the environment are just terribly, horribly sad.

A human story of how our society operates
Format: Kindle
There's a lot of terms you could use to describe the themes in this book. Capitalism, patriarchy, settler-colonialism, climate change but the book doesn't need to throw these terms around. It just shows them through the eyes of a person who experienced them. There's also a feeling of "there but by the grace of god go I" having been tempted by the possibility of oil work myself during the Great Recession. The story of how our drive for oil eats at our humanity is vital and helps show the cost of how we've structured our society at a personal level. At times funny, heartwarming, and tragic, a fantastically written and drawn work that I have to highly recommend!

An amazing, if sometimes dark, memoir of work, solitude, and taking a pragmatic path in life.
Format: Hardcover
What do you do, when your only viable financial prospects are to move to even more remote, cold, dark and desolate land where you are part of a corporate mining operation dredging sands for valuable resources, living onsite in a company owned dormitory? Beaton recalls all this in her memoir of her post-university time, where she was faced with this decision to either live and work the oil sands, or face a life of financial bondage trying to pay back student loans, a decision we see many of her own countrymen face as their only viable means to survive.
If you are familiar with Beaton's comic strip work, you'll see familiar reference to the genesis of it here, but Ducks is a far more serious graphic novel. Both engaging and often times bleak, Ducks gives a wonderful window into the reality of Canada's oil industry, and the humanity of the people, who are nothing more than cogs in a machine, that run it.
