Please Don't Pet the Haworthias
Haworthia asperula
This name is a contested name. Some would call it H. retusa ssp asperula. Some would say it is an unnamed or unresolved H. retusa. But I like the name asperula so I am not willing to give it up. That’s the thing with haworthias. They interbreed and hybridize readily. They all look alike. The subspecies of one species may look more like another species. Oy, the confusion reigns. Therefore, I photograph what I have for posterity.
Today’s plant has no common name. Will you help me choose one?
