Leeublad, which is some kilometers east of De Rust is an interesting location, as both Haworthia bayeri (could be regarded as H laeta) and Haworthia jadea occur there. The two localities are roughly 2 km apart. Whereas Haworthia bayeri flowers during spring, like other H bayeri in that vicinity, Haworthia jadea flowers in summer. The plants could be related but they are quite easy to tell apart in cultivation.
