Diagnostic description

H. tessellata should be regarded as a separate species because only the branched tesselate lines on the upper surface of the leaves are common to both species, while the remainder of the morphological and floral characters of H. venosa are readily separable from those of H. tessellata. The distribution of H. venosa is confined to the wetter parts of the south western Cape Province, while H. tessellata is distributed widely in the drier areas of the central parts of South Africa. The nearest affinity of H. tessellata is with H. venosa which is well separated in a higher rainfall area, and is characterized by its branched, free, upper surface lines, and non-stoloniferous nature. From: Scott, CL. 1985. The genus Haworthia (Liliaceae): a taxonomic revision. Aloe Books, Johannesburg. [All rights reserved] As: Haworthia tessellata Haw.

Habitat

Within the distribution range the rainfall may vary from 200 mm per annum in the northern Cape and some parts of S.W. Africa, to 800 mm in the extreme south east. The greater part of this area, however, receives between 400 and 600 mm which is precipitated during the summer months in short violent downpours. In their natural habitats, plants of H. tessellata grow well raised above the ground, on deep, well-drained, sandy soil or wedged in cracks, which sometimes contain small deposits of rich soil. The species occurs in areas mostly covered by grassland of various types, sometimes in open scrubland, or low open savanna, under bushes. The summers are hot, the winters cold with frost. H. tessellata grows in a firm hard soil with pH 6. From: Scott, CL. 1985. The genus Haworthia (Liliaceae): a taxonomic revision. Aloe Books, Johannesburg.
