I remember being in his office and looking at a wall map he had of Southern Africa and discussing species and interesting places to explore. The country is vast with many niche habitats. Over the past several years new populations have been discovered in the ever remote mountain ranges. Ernst keeps a large reference collection at Kirstenbosch with many interesting Gasteria.

I have heard that EVJ has been finding several new types. When you were visiting Ernst Van Jaarsveld, did you happen to notice any new gasteria species that were not included in his book.
