Some of Gerhard Marx's finest cultivars will be on auction as from 10 June 2009 as well as the first Haworthia marxiiHaworthia tesselata occurs widespread in the arid Karoo regions. It is not a common plant however. The plants prefer to grow protected in the shade of bushes. It has some affinity with Haworthia venosa but is geographically well separated from the latter, although Mr Bruce Bayer refers to some linking forms.
When well protected, the plants can form large clumps.
Some of the plants have attractive white markings.
