Haworthia heidelbergensis is another of the hard-bodied Haworthias that is found in the vicinity of Heidelberg, Western Cape Province, at a place called Nooitgedecht. This species offsets more readily than other hard-bodied Haworthias, and variety scabra has narrower leaves with roughened margins and keel than the typical species. The greenish-black stems with light striking are highly distinctive, as are the more tapered, acuminate leaves. These plants are in 4-inch pots.
