Gasteria brachyphylla var. bayeri - Leopoort

A delightful little Gasteria, originally discovered in the Ladimith district. It occurs at a number of localities including Leopoort.

The plants here are rather variable as they seem to be influenced by Gasteria  brachyphylla var. 
brachyphylla which also occurs on the farm.  I have seen similar situations elsewhere also.



A beautiful painting by Alan Rollason from the UK of the plants at Leopoort.
This is the"pure" small form.
