Anyone knowledgeable with Haworthia? I'm not at all familiar with succulents and while I realize that many plants can be quite variable in shape, color, etc., I'm wondering if possibly 1 or 2 pictures at this database entry may have been uploaded to the incorrect location? They look quite different and at least one appears to have a different growth habit than the others.

My suspicion is they are not the same plant, but I don't know my Haworthias well enough to say what all of them are.

For what it's worth, I have pretty high confidence in my photos being correctly identified, based on the source. But I was unable to extract much info about this variety from my usual Haworthia reference, which treats it as a species.

I asked in the succulent forum and got a guess about the IDs

but nothing firm. I think probably the mismatched images will have to stay where they are for now. Paging @Joy and @a2b1c3 in case they have any input here.

I see what you mean. Doesn't look like the other photos. The photo is courtesy of Avant Gardens. Looks like it is misidentified. I'll ask that it be moved.
