We have some Haworthias (Hawgs). These come from many sources. We've been importing from Japan, Europe and Africa as well as from the box stores, eBay and great commercial growers in the USA.
Here's an Altman plant I got at HD a year ago. This is what it looked like in Jan 2007.
We call it the Altman 'Black Comptoniana' clone and it was one of those $1.95 specials. I was amazed that it survived the drowning it had received from winter rain and everyday watering at HD.
There are over 15 comptoniana clones in the collection. Most of them are distinctly different. The 'Black Comptoniana' clones (I was lucky enough to get 2 ) are the blackest of all the "black comptonianas" we have or have seen. Its blackness is not so obvious here..it really began to show. later.
