    First, IMHO, you can NEVER have Haworthia overload! Next, I enjoy all of your plants, especially the windowed forms. Please continue to share with us... they are wonderful!

    On a different note: When one hovers over any of your pictures, your name comes up as, "RyanH (LT), on Flickr". On the forum's list of who's who, you are listed as "Rian". So am I confused? What have I missed? I hate being politically incorrect....LOL More importantly, disrespectful.

    WOW... I just added a few things to my wish list.

    Thanks for sharing ..what a great way to see and compare different variations.

    Doc, Rian. The variation Ryan is used in other places. I am Afrikaans, and the English conversion sound the same in both cases. To be really correct, I am Adrian, but have always been called Rian....hehehehe. Glad you like the spread, so many more looks and shapes, but my addiction usually starts with one or 2 interesting ones and then it escalates.

    Thanks CNoob

    Wow... WOW! There's always a new surprise from you. Very glad to be amongst the recipients of your overload. That limifolia var. striata just blew my mind! Never have seen it. Thanks for the amazing show!

    Where do I even begin. H. limifolia v. striata! Lucky duck; that plant has been ungodly expensive when I've seen it online.

    H. c. pilifera and H. c. dielsiana, even. Sigh, want! And, yes, no such thing as too many Haw pictures!

    Love the pics! I have an adorable little Haworthia venosa ssp. tessellata that has just started sending out little pups... if all my space wasn't completely full of various jade cultivars, I would definitely get a lot more Haworthia to keep mine company ;)

    so many beauties! Makes me want to go shopping!
    thanks for sharing.

    Thanks for the comments,

    Yes venosa is lovely, mine a little dark (too much sun), and tt I do also enjoy those, I have a baby H. marxii, which I hope to get growing strong enough for descent pic, but very excited about it.
    Thanks Laura.

    Rian (or anyone) -

    How is it possible that there are so many different forms of the same .... um, species? genus? "kind of plant"??

    From squat, fat little leaves to aloe-looking plants to hairy bundles to skinny, floppy spikes!!!

    How does a neophyte learn to recognize what's what??!!

    Mind-boggling!

    Thanks for sharing!

    Beachplants...stop it...you know I can't grow those here in z 4............Can I ???

  • 11 years ago
    last modified: 10 years ago

    Lee, the serious answer would be micro-environments, but makes it also very difficult to properly id nursery specimens without names and it becomes even more confusing with all the names for one species and continuous renaming and shifting, then there is a massive range of hybrids (some exceptional). They are a joy and always fun to stop and spend time with.

    Hehe, Dan. As houseplants maybe, they do not like much sunshine and more need bright light. One of my friend from Germany has a massive collection of lithops, exceptionally grown in her window. I've seen collections in windows of Haworthia as well.

    WOW! I'm always a sucker for some windows. I really wanna lick the H. bobii. Is that weird?

    Rian, I have a few questions; In your climate and soil where you grow your Haworthias, How often do you water and fertilize them? Do you treat them as winter growers?
    Thanks :)

    Ooo Ooo Ooo...drool, drool...FANTASTIC, Rian! Love to see Haws I have not laid eyes on before. Also, fabulous specimens...I want that splendens! Also have to have the bobii, plus others I'll be on the lookout for now! ENABLER, you!!

    Thanks for the show!

    Me? jealous! ;)

    Added to my wish list as well.

    Where did you got those collection? none at any garden center here.

  • 11 years ago
    last modified: 10 years ago

    Thanks Bob.

    Natalia, I am in SA. Well drained soil, nothing special. Depending on time of year - 8-14 days. They rest over summer, so regular water can easily rot them, then. If I fertilize, usually in Autumn and/or Spring. Transplant them usually late summer.

    Sorry Rosemarie...

    Jane? The plants take time to collect from more specialized sources. You have more options than I do in SA (where they occur), such endless variety. I am sure some of the people here would be able to steer you to online sources.

    beautiful plants! You should be super proud. I'm looking on in envy.

    Awesome collection!

    Your Haworthia cooperi var tenera really surprised me as it bears no resemblance to the other cooperi variants at all. I thought it was a decipiens.

    I think the Haworthia bobii was my favorite of those pictured ... or at least in the top 5.

    There is so much to learn from reading this thread. :-)
