Gamtoos River Valley (very long leaved form) This is one of the most distinctive Haworthias and one of the most unusual, because it has very long stiff green leaves and is not seen very often in cultivation. To look its best it takes many years of tender loving care and understanding making this long leaved Haworthia a great challenge to grow well. Indeed this plant is very rare because it is such a slow grower, or that it offsets only when mature, but most likely is that it is a Haworthia that only a Haworthia aficionado could love.
