Tulista
''Tulista'' is a small genus of succulent plants endemic to South Africa. They were formerly included within the genus ''Haworthia''. Characteristics The genus is characterised by a large size (relative to other haworthias), by their stemless rosette growth form, by the yellow exudate in their non-fibrous leaves, and by their distinctive flowers with robust peduncles. Taxonomy The genus ''Haworthia'' was long considered problematic, and suspected of being polyphyletic. It was accordingly divided into three different subgenera: ''Haworthia'' (the soft, green, leafy, and often retuse species); ''Hexangulares'' (the harder, often tubercled species); ''Robustipedunculares'' (the four largest, most robust species). Several phylogenetic studies have confirmed this division, and shown that ''Haworthia'' actually comprises three clades that are only distantly related. Based on phylogenetic evidence, in 2013, Gordon Rowley revived the genus ''Tulista'', first erected by Constantine Sam ...

Tulista Minor
''Tulista minima'' is a species of succulent plant, from the far south of the Western Cape, South Africa. It was formerly classed in the genus ''Haworthia'', as ''Haworthia minima''. However this was not the correct name, as the name ''Haworthia minor'' in fact had priority. When the species was transferred to the new genus ''Tulista'', a combination was first published for ''Tulista minima'', which was likewise invalid. A new combination was therefore needed for ''Tulista minor'', which was accordingly published in 2018. Description It is a small evergreen succulent plant, with hard, fleshy blue-green leaves that are covered in white tubercles. It offsets readily and can form clumps. It produces white flowers with pink tips in the summer (November to December). It is a variable species, with different populations differing in the leaf shape, colour, growth form and tubercles. Popular varieties include ''T. minima'' var. ''poellnitziana'', as well as the ''opalina'' and ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Tulista Kingiana
''Tulista kingiana'' is a species of succulent plant, from the Western Cape, South Africa. It is listed as Endangered on the IUCN global Red List It was formerly classed in the genus ''Haworthia'', as ''Haworthia kingiana''. Description and taxonomy It is an evergreen succulent plant with rosettes of short, sharp, bright green, succulent leaves. The leaves are usually covered with flat, shiny tubercles. These are usually rounded and white, but they are occasionally elongated or slightly translucent. The plant gradually produces offsets and can form clumps. In November and December it produces pink-white flowers. The bright, yellow-green colour is the distinguishing feature of ''Tulista kingiana''. In other ways though, this species is quite variable. Even in one locality there can be great variety in leaf shape, growth form and tubercles. It was formerly classed in the genus ''Haworthia'', with the other large species ('' T.pumila'', '' T.minima'' & '' T.marginata'') in the ...

Tulista Pumila
''Tulista pumila'' ("Vratjiesaalwee") is a species of ''Tulista'' succulent plant, from the Western Cape, South Africa. It was formerly placed in the genus ''Haworthia'', as ''Haworthia pumila'' or ''Haworthia maxima''. Description It is an evergreen, winter-growing succulent plant with sharp succulent leaves arranged in rosettes of 20 cm in diameter. The leaves are hard, upright, sometimes incurved and are usually covered with raised white tubercles. It is a variable species, with different populations differing in the leaf shape, colour, growth form and tubercles. It also varies according to environment, and in direct sun during the dry summer, it can assume a red colour. The leaves usually have an olive-green to brown colour. In the summer (November to December) ''Tulista pumila'' produces pink-white tubular flowers, on a tall thin inflorescence. Naming and taxonomy The eponymy of this species has been relatively complex. It was previously named ''Haworthia maxima'' or ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Haworthia Marginata
''Tulista marginata'' is a species of ''Tulista'' succulent plant, from the Western Cape, South Africa. Description and taxonomy It is an evergreen, winter-growing succulent plant with short, sharp leaves arranged in rosettes of 20 cm in diameter. The leaves are hard, keeled, upright, pale in colour, and can be with tubercles. In the summer (November to December), T.marginata produces pink-white flowers on a multi-branched inflorescence. ''Tulista marginata'' is a variable species, with different populations and varieties, differing in the leaf shape, colour, growth form and tubercles. It was formerly classed in the genus ''Haworthia'', within which it was one of the largest species. It was classed with the other large species ('' T.pumila'', '' T.minima'' and '' T.kingiana'') in the ''"Robustipedunculares"'' subgenus. Following recent phylogenetic studies, it has been shown that these four species in fact constitute a distinct out-group, separate from other Haworthias. ...

Haworthia
''Haworthia'' is a large genus of small succulent plants endemic to Southern Africa (Mozambique, Namibia, Lesotho, Eswatini and South Africa). Like the aloes, they are members of the subfamily Asphodeloideae and they generally resemble miniature aloes, except in their flowers, which are distinctive in appearance. They are popular garden and container plants. Description and characteristics ''Haworthias'' are small succulent plants, forming rosettes of leaves from to exceptionally in diameter, depending on the species. These rosettes are usually stemless but in some species stems reach up to . The inflorescences of some species may exceed in height. The plants can grow solitary or can be clump-forming. Many species have firm, tough, fleshy leaves, usually dark green in colour, whereas others are softer and contain leaf windows with translucent panels through which sunlight can reach internal photosynthetic tissues. Their flowers are small, and generally white. Though ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Astroloba
''Astroloba'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asphodelaceae, subfamily Asphodeloideae,Stevens, P.F. (2001 onwards)"Asphodeloideae" ''Angiosperm Phylogeny Website'', retrieved 2016-06-10 native to the Cape Province of South Africa. Naming The name of the genus is derived from the Greek words ''astros'', star, and ''lobos'', lobe, and refers to the starlike shape of the petals, which appear at the end of the tube-like flowers. Description They are very closely related to the genus ''Haworthia'', but are distinguished by their flowers being regular and not double-tipped. The flowers are small and white, and appear clustered on slender racemes., p. 17 They bear very regular, sharp, triangular, succulent leaves along their symmetrical columnar stems. The leaves are in a number of distinctive spiral arrangements. They are slow growing, multi-stemmed, and their longer stems tend to sprawl in their rocky natural habitat. Within the genus, various subgroupings can be r ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Aristaloe Aristata
''Aristaloe'' is a genus of evergreen flowering perennial plants in the family Asphodelaceae from Southern Africa. Its sole species is ''Aristaloe aristata'', known as guinea-fowl aloe or lace aloe. Naming and taxonomy This species is known locally as "serelei" (Sesotho for "slippery one") or "langnaaldaalwyn" (Afrikaans for "lacey aloe"). In English it is usually known as the "lace aloe" or "guinea-fowl aloe". The species was described by Adrian Hardy Haworth. Its species name ''"aristata"'' comes from the Latin for "bristly" or " awned", and refers to the lacy edges of the leaves. Its generic name has the same etymology. Recent phylogenetic studies have demonstrated that the genus ''Aloe'' is polyphyletic and that this unusual species is not in fact an aloe, but is more closely related to ''Astroloba'' and to the four ''"Robustipedunculares"'' species of ''Haworthia''. It has therefore been moved to its own genus, ''Aristaloe'', to account for its separate ancestry and genetic ...

Gonialoe
''Gonialoe'' (the partridge aloes) is a small genus of three succulent plant species, indigenous to South Africa, Namibia and Angola. They were formerly included within the related genus ''Aloe''. The three species are '' Gonialoe variegata, Gonialoe sladeniana, Gonialoe dinteri''. Taxonomy The genus ''Aloe'' was found to be polyphyletic. It was accordingly divided into different genera: ''Aloe'', '' Kumara'', ''Aloiampelos'', and ''Gonialoe'', among others. Several recent phylogenetic studies have confirmed this division, and shown that ''Aloe'' actually consists of several relatively unrelated groups. The same studies suggested that the closest relatives of this proposed genus were the related genera ''Astroloba ''Astroloba'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asphodelaceae, subfamily Asphodeloideae,Stevens, P.F.
