Haworthia decipiens is frequently confused with its western relative, Haworthia arachnoidea and is both variable and hard to identify ("decipiens" = "deceptive"). Like its relatives, it has rosettes of dense succulent leaves, which dry and contract during drought, and are covered in soft bristles.
Haworthia is a large genus of small succulent plants endemic to Southern Africa (Mozambique, Namibia, Lesotho, Eswatini and South Africa). [1]Like aloes and gasteria they are members of the subfamily Asphodeloideae and they generally resemble miniature aloes, except in their flowers, which are distinctive in appearance.
It is sometimes confused with the widespread Haworthia decipiens (decipiens = deceptive) which occurs in the Great Karoo to the east. However H. decipiens has shorter, flatter, wider leaves; a lighter colour; translucent leaf tips; larger and sparser bristles which are mainly only on the leaf margins; and only a very weak leaf keel.

It also occurs as far as the countryside south east of Steytlerville. Within this range, it occurs together with its close relative, Haworthipsis sordida, as well as Haworthia springbokvlakensis, Haworthia decipiens and Haworthiopsis nigra. This is an arid area of summer rainfall.
Haworthia bolusii is a species of Haworthia that was originally described by John Gilbert Baker in 1880. [2] It is closely related to the neighbouring species to the west, Haworthia decipiens, and it is native to the northern part of the Eastern Cape Province in South Africa. [1] [3] [4]
