Description
Haworthia blackburniae v derustensis (Aloaceae) (price per 3 seeds). This is a more robust variety of H. blackburniae with dark green-brownish leaves, they are more erect and more channelled. Sowing: Sow the seeds during the cool, early summer months of the year in a light, sandy, loam mixture in a seed tray, 4 mm below the soil surface. If sown too deep, they will be smothered and probably not germinate. Ensure there is adequate drainage. A light mixture constitutes materials such as pumice, gravel, perlite and fine-textured humus. On top of this mixture, sprinkle a thin layer of coarse sand. Keep the area weed free and water with a fine mist spray every second day. Ensure the seed trays are in a sunny position. Locality: De Rust. Harvest: June 2021
