Haworthia vitris

Haworthia vitris is a recent name (Hayashi, 2018, Alsterworthia International) for a soft-leaved Cape haworthia; nothing beyond the description has been published and GBIF holds no wild records. Treat it as a typical soft, windowed Haworthia of the southern Cape: filtered light, dry air, a cool winter and a gritty mix. The only measured climate here is a Northern Cape region centroid and is far hotter and drier than a soft Haworthia is likely to experience.

Where it grows wild

Not described in any source reached. Soft-leaved Haworthia species of the Cape grow drawn down into the soil under low shrubs and among quartz or shale on gentle slopes, with the leaf windows at ground level.

Unknown; most soft Haworthia sit between 100 and 800 m in the southern Cape.
