From Rondekop, southwest of Willowmore and straddling the Eastern and Western Cape Province, this species has leaves that are thick and fleshy, resembling those of the almost toothless "tiger jaws" (Faucaria). The leaves are rooted cuttings in a flat rosette developing from a short branching stem, and the species forms mats in habitat. The flowers petals are yellow with pink tips. These plants are seedlings in 4-inch pots.
