Beautiful. Are those raised tubercles? They almost look hairy on my screen!

Cool .... deliberate pun
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.

It looks a bit like the Haworthia pygmaea, super-white from Succulent Tissue Culture (https://www.succulent-tissue-culture.co ... php?id=627).
It is a tempting one to buy.

@edds: that white stuff does look & feel like some kind of short hair, rather hard too

@Diane: thank you :)

@Aiko: seems you're right regarding name. But in the end, final vote here went to: Haworthia cv Snješka :)

I agree - Superwhite. It lives up to its name!

H. pygmaea 'Yukihime' (Jap. for 'Snow Princess' I guess) from me. Again, is it a different one? Who knows. Acquired Jan '21 from NL (Danny's Cactus and More).

From memory, yours looks to have a slightly different leaf tip, with a bit of a shoulder, Mat.
