A Touch of Haworthia Taxonomy
Taxonomy being a man-made attempt to 'simplify' understanding...
| Propagation |
|
| The genus Haworthia comprises a large variety of growth forms but these can be categorized into three subgenera . These subgenera, containing plants which have similar floral characteristics, can be sub-divided further into sections - and further still, into subsections. Clicking on the small photos will take you directly to that section/subsection. | |

|
|
| Taxonomy - 1 | Parts 1a and 1b summarize the subgenera Haworthia |
| Taxonomy - 2 | Part 2 summarizes the subgenera Hexangulares |
| Taxonomy - 3 | Part 3 summarizes the subgenera Robustipedunculares |
|

|
The Taxonomy pages are based upon the following books and are intended for my own education and reference during the building of the Haworthia pages. Hopefully, they may be of assistance to you too. |
