Hi everyone!  
I purchased this lil succulent a few months ago. I am having trouble identifying what she could be. She looks similar to a star cactus, but is missing some key qualities from other pictures i have seen. If anyone has any tips/ideas i would greatly appreciate it!! :)

Looks like a star cactus that has gotten a little leggy.

Very etiolated Haworthia Retusa?

### KJM reageerde op 2025-02-13

I too think it's a Hawarthia. Not sure about retusa. Maybe H. Pygmaea? There are several others that look similar. With that one elongated leaf it's hard to tell.

Kind of looks like Hawthoria cymbiformis, “cathedral window” hawthoria. I think it gets long/slightly yellow like that when it wants more sunlight. This is mine!
