Thanks Phil.
Hmm. The code says you should not translate cultivar names. Anyway, now that I have had a Japanese lesson
,
Googling Haworthia 'Cherry Crystal', the first hit (for me at least) is the plant I know as H. 'Sakura Crystal'. About the 7th hit is a picture the same as my plant (id Cherry Crystal). However, these two are clearly quite different plants:
- mine has much thinner leaves
- in mine, the leaves bend over towards the centre of the plant, leaving a shape almost like a hollow sphere with an opening at the top, whereas in the "real" Sakura Crystal (see below), the leaf tips point away from the centre, and the shape is just an "ordinary" rosette.
If instead you google Haworthia 'Sakura Crystal', then several hits match the first Cherry Crystal hit, and none match my plant.
I conclude that my plant is not H. 'Sakura Crystal', but it is going round as an imposter of that plant.
All this leaves me back where I started - what is the correct name for the plant I have shown?
What I think is the correct Sakura Crystal is shown here:
