Haworthiopsis viscosa - 'Santoku' Kandelaarsrivier
A unique natural form, with the leaves more exposed, and a tendency to point vertically. Grown from a single plant from Kandelaarsrivier south of Oudtshoorn.
The cultivar name 'Santoku' refers to a Japanese kitchen knife, which a leaf two dimensionally somewhat resembles.

Original seedling received from Mr. Gerhard Marx
Haworthiopsis tuberculata fma. ensiformis - Leeublad east of Dysselsdorp
An interesting smallish form from Leeublad. Original discovery by Gerhard Marx.

It is more green than H 'Crocodile Skin' with whitish tubercles and outward curving leaves.
Breeder: Mr. Gerhard Marx.
Haworthiopsis brevicula - Kap River DMC 8226
This plant belongs to the Reinwardtii group. The larger Haworthiopsis reinwardtii is also found among others in the Kap River area.
This one was discovered by David Cumming 3/4 way down the Kap River valley.
Haworthiopsis sp - R140820 McGregor
An unidentified Haworthiopsis species found near McGregor. It could possibly be a garden plant that escaped to nature.
Haworthiopsis 'Helios'
An attractive and interesting hybrid by Mr Gerhard Marx with a bronze - brown colour.
Parentage Haworthiopsis bruynsii and Haworthiopsis koelmaniorum
Haworthiopsis nigra 'Elongata' - IB 8000
I received this plant from Ingo Breuer many years ago. The reference number is probably incorrect. No further data is available. It has elongated leaves and slowly offsets by stolons.
Haworthiopsis X taute
A natural cross between Haworthiopsis tuberculata and Haworthiopsis viscosa. This one from near Kammanassie Dam east of Oudtshoorn.

Haworthiopsis sordida - GM 763 Noorspoort
I am just adding this image for now. Hope to follow with more data at a later date
A fantastic and very rare pink and white variegated seedling of Haworthiopsis sordida GM 763 from Noorspoort.
Produced by Gerhard Marx
Haworthiopsis tuberculata - East of Ebenezer Schoemanshoek
A neat lanceolate form found at some places few and far between on red ferricrete hills.
Haworthiopsis tuberculata - GM661 Kraaldoorn east of Calitzdorp
Although Haworthiopsis tuberculata is a rather stable element in the Southern - and Eastern Cape, it does have some unique populations every now and again. One such population is at Kraaldoorn east of Calitzdorp. The plants have attractive prominent tubercles , somewhat glass-like and almost white.
Plants in the collection of Mr. Gerhard Marx.
Originally these were broken pieces lying around in the veld.
Haworthiopsis sordida - SW Kirkwood
Previous statement that this is the only clone at HaworthiaGems is not true. I have subsequently learned that Haworthiopsis sordida (Clifton Marais) north of Uitenhage is the same locality so there are a few more available. Some leaves of the plant above have been removed for propagation.
Three shoots formed from the leaves after patiently waiting for months. These grew very slowly and will be auctioned off at Plant Auction . More leaves are going to be removed and the flower stalk send for tissue culture.
