Bayers (1999) concept of Haworthia retusa is very broad and encompasses a number of forms that others consider to be distinct. Forma fouchei, once considered a separate species, is closely related to H. retusa (geraldii), offered separately. However, the leaves are darker green and more erect than H. retusa (geraldii). We propagated these plants from material originally collected about 5 km northeast of Riversdale (GM 307). These plants are rooted offsets in 4-inch pots.
