Faucaria tuberculosa – 2 Live Starter Succulent Plants, 2-Inch Size – Faucaria tuberculosa
Couldn't load pickup availability
This listing includes 2 Faucaria tuberculosa live starter succulent plants from the seller's 2-inch starter plant category. The plants are young specimens with developing rosettes and distinctive textured foliage. You will receive plants similar to those shown in the listing photographs. The seller's description mentions a smaller pictured specimen, but also states that the actual plants may vary, so the photographs should be treated as representative rather than a guarantee of exact individual plants.
Faucaria tuberculosa is a compact succulent in the Aizoaceae family, commonly associated with the name Tiger Jaws. It is recognized for its fleshy, triangular leaves with prominent raised tubercles and tooth-like projections along the leaf margins. These projections give the plant its distinctive appearance but are not true sharp teeth.
This South African succulent develops a low-growing, clustering habit and is suitable for succulent collections, small containers, and protected displays. It generally prefers bright light, a fast-draining succulent growing medium, and relatively infrequent watering. The seller describes the root system as established, although the general starter disclaimer indicates that roots may not fully occupy a 2-inch nursery pot.
Shipping Size & Condition:
Quantity: 2 live starter succulent plants Listed Size: 2-inch starter plant category Plant Selection: Similar to the pictured plants; exact specimens not guaranteed Root Development: Seller describes established roots; roots may not fully occupy a 2-inch nursery pot Shipping Condition: Bare root Nursery Pots Included: No Soil Pods Included: Not confirmed Shipping Height: Not specified
Shipping Clarification:
The original description states that the plants will ship in soil pods. However, the final Shipping Notice specifies bare-root shipment without nursery pots.
For accuracy, this listing identifies the shipping condition as bare root. Soil pods are not guaranteed, because the shipping statements conflict.
The seller also provides conflicting statements about receiving the exact smaller pictured plant versus a similar plant. This listing therefore describes the plants as similar to the photographs, without guaranteeing the exact specimens.
The 2-inch measurement refers to the starter plant category, not a guaranteed shipping height or an included nursery pot.
Plant Condition Disclosure:
Live plants may be shipped dormant, leafless, recently pruned, bare root, or partially defoliated depending on season, weather, and shipping requirements.
Natural variation in size, branching, foliage density, color, root structure, and overall appearance should be expected.
Important Note:
You will receive a live starter plant (seedling/young plant). Listing photos show the plant at a mature stage for reference only. The actual plant size, shape, and appearance may vary and will be significantly smaller than the images shown.
Customer Notice:
Live plants may experience normal shipping stress such as leaf loss, yellowing, wilting, or minor branch damage.
Please consider local weather before purchasing. Extreme heat, freezing temperatures, severe weather, shipping delays, or unattended packages may increase plant stress.
