From the foothills of the Groot Swartberg north of Oudtshoorn, Western Cape Province of South Africa, this form of Haworthia scabra forms large clumps in the wild. The leaves have less tubercles than the type species and also are lighter in color. In some ways, this subspecies looks like a smaller version of H. scabra var. starkiana. These plants are rooted offsets in 3-inch pots.
