GM关于H.archeri 的简短讨论

H.archeri 是一种小型且严格地独立生长的种类，直径很少超过50mm。分布十分稀疏，总是隐藏得非常好，藏在向南的斜坡的石头下面。

它们被限制在Laingsburg 和Matjiesfontein 之间的区域，向北几公里就是Sutherland。

花期在仲夏（二月）（注：原文如此），它的花的特点是，它们有直直的尖在花被片上端，而不是通常在瓦苇中看到的那种上部卷曲。

最显著的特点是较大且布满斑点的种荚，几乎只在H.archeri中出现。（H.dimorpha 和H.fraseri中也有发现）

H.archeri生长缓慢，较难栽培，导致很少被人们收集。

它的原产地全年雨水稀少，但H.archeri 的主要生长时期似乎在初冬和冬末。

在部分产地，H.archeri 生长在H.lockwoodii，H.arachnoidea var scabrispina和H.viscosa附近。

我看到有些出版物中将它和H.marumiana 联系在一起，这是极其不幸的事，完全是肤浅与误导的。

H.marumiana 在春季开花，易于群生，在花、种荚和叶片方面都有众多差别，生长在几近垂直的悬崖上。

此外，H.marumiana非常易于栽培，长得像野草一样快，而H.archeri较为稀有，难以养护和繁殖。

（H.archeri特殊的种荚）

Haworthia archeri W. F. Barker - A short discussion by Gerhard Marx. Haworthia archeri is a small and strictly solitary species, seldom more than 50 mm wide and growing very sparsely distributed and extremely well hidden amongst and below rocks on steep southern slopes. It seems to be restricted to the area between Laingsburg and Matjiesfontein and a few km northwards towards Sutherland. Flowering is during mid-summer (February) and the flowers are characterised by having straight tips to the upper perianth lobes, not upward-curving as generally found in Haworthia. Most characteristic is the large and flecked fruits which is unique to Haworthia archeri. (The flecked fruits are also found to a lesser degree in Haworthia dimorpha and Haworthia fraseri.)Haworthia archeri is slow and difficult in cultivation, causing it to be rarely encountered in collections. The habitat receives very sparse rain throughout the year but the main growing periods for Haworthia archeri seem to be early and late winter. At some localities Haworthia archeri grows closely adjacent to Haworthia lockwoodii, Haworthia arachnoidea var scabrispina and Haworthia viscosa. The association with Haworthia marumiana as encountered in some publications is extremely unfortunate as it is totally superficial and misleading. Haworthia marumiana is a spring-flowering and freely clustering species with numerous flower, fruit and leaf differences and restricted to vertical cliff faces in the wild. In addition, Haworthia marumiana is a very easy plant in cultivation and proliferates to weed-like extent while Haworthia archeri is rare and difficult to maintain and propagate.
