This site is dedicated to Haworthia cultivars and hybrids, mostly produced from selected South African and Japanese material. Many of the plants are from hybrid origin although some pure selected species are also included. The majority of plants were selected, fertilized and cultivated by Gerhard Marx, an artist and one of the finest growers of Haworthia and succulent plants. I include numerous pictures of plants that have been auctioned off since 2008 and ones still to be auctioned.
This site displays 7 cultivars at a time. Older pics will be in the archive.

Haworthia mutica 'White Widow' Ref: 6110901
Haworthia mutica 'White Widow'
Origin: Natural cultivar
Created by: Leaf propagation (2002) ex KBG
Cultivated by: Gerhard Marx
This plant is an offset (grown from a leaf cutting) from the famous Haworthia mutica "White Widow" on display in the Karoo National Botanical Garden at Worcester. See post above this one. A photograph of the original plant also appears in the book "'Guide to Garden Succulents'. Gideon F. Smith & Ben-Erik van Wyk. Briza Publications, Pretoria , 2008."
We expect our auction plant to develop similarly with age.
