This is an interesting find from the Lategansvlei area west of Oudtshoorn. Plants at this locality usually have a neater appearance, are light green/brown, and are relatively robust compared to plants from other localities. The tubercles are mostly smooth. The locality has since been destroyed due to farming activities. Not many localities of H tuberculata like plants are known west of Oudtshoorn. The beautiful Kraaldoorn form is found further west of Lategansvlei near Calitzdorp. Rumour has it that H smitii occurs between Lategansvei and Oudtshoorn.
