Our primary interests are Haworthia and any of the other small growing Asphodelaceae. We hope you find the information presented here to be helpful. Please feel free to drop us a note.

Haworthia Update 2

Haworthia Update volume 2 Bruce Bayer continues to explore, study, think critically, and write; here is his latest compilation. 166 A4 pages, gloss art paper, thermal bound between two 250g A4 white card covers. Well over 500 photographs and maps, all of which are color except for a few archive and SEM photos. Photos are mainly 8 to an A4 page. 18 chapters cover a wide range of topics on these popular Southern African plants. Several topographical maps help illustrate the points Bruce makes. Since the publication of Haworthia Revisited Bruce Bayer has located and studied nearly 1000 new Haworthia populations. He uses this information to revise his own classification of haworthia and to comment on the taxonomy of others, who will not have had the benefits of this extensive field research as a basis for their work.
