Also southeast of Heidelberg is this population of turgida just to demonstrate how variable it also is. Here it has erect narrow leaves and shows the colouration of the retusoids. Haworthia turgida occupies about 75% of the area that mirabilis does but they never actually share habitat. I remind you that I do not like the nomenclatural system and where it occurs that the name retusa would be required to be preferred over turgida, when in fact retusa is a lesser variant of turgida.
