Haworthia bolusii var bolusii Baker

This Haworthia first came to me as H. aranea, now a variety of H. arachnodiea. However, this plant has clear left tips and grows very low in the ground, so is actually a bolusii var. bolusii!  It is quite the beauty grown well. Haworthia bolusii is not common in cultivation, and offsets rarely, if at all.  It can be grown from seed and most plants are from seed, as a leaf cutting is almost impossible also.  This plant is from the area of Vergelegen.
