Tulista pumila 'Emperor' was formerly known as Haworthia pumila ‘Emperor’ until recently, a member of the Asphodelaceae family. This cultivar is recognized and sought after for its striking appearance, unique leaf characteristics, and overall ornamental value among succulent enthusiasts and collectors.

'Emperor' displays a compact and clustered growth habit, forming rosettes of small, thick, triangular, or lance-shaped leaves. The leaves are typically dark green to bluish-green in color.

The leaves often feature distinct and attractive raised lines or ridges along their surfaces, giving them a textured or patterned appearance. 'Emperor' is known for its decorative leaf markings, which can vary from plant to plant, sometimes displaying bands, spots, or lines of contrasting colors like white, cream, or reddish-brown.

This cultivar tends to remain relatively small, with individual rosettes usually reaching sizes of about 2-3 inches (5-8 cm) in diameter.

Like other Tulista/Haworthia, 'Emperor' prefers bright but indirect light and can be grown both indoors and outdoors. It thrives in well-draining soil to prevent waterlogging, as excessive moisture can lead to root rot. Watering should be moderate, allowing the soil to dry out between watering, particularly during the plant's dormant period.

'Emperor' can be propagated through offsets or pups that develop around the base of the mother plant. These offsets can be carefully separated and replanted in suitable succulent potting mixtures to propagate new plants.

Haworthia pumila 'Emperor' is appreciated for its charming appearance, intricate leaf patterns, and relatively easy care requirements. It is a desirable addition to any succulent collection, offering visual interest and unique characteristics that make it stand out among other Tulista/Haworthia varieties.
