I have received seeds of Haworthia Silviae, and can't find a listing. I was told they were collected NW of Albertina, Mossgass, and Mossel Bay.
Thank you.

Hi, H. silviae is synonym for H. pygmaea v. argenteo-maculosa. They grow at 3 known localities - at Humor, Cooper Station and around Mossgas (where they integrates into normal pygamea). plants from NW Albertinia are descibed as H. dekanahii - but I would need photo of the plant to confirm they match.
