This is a small, vigorously offsetting variety forming delightful, mounding, emerald green colonies. The plump leaves are speckled with pale spots that, in this clone, tend to line up along the length of the leaves. HBG 69236, collected Aug 8, 1990, by J. Berdach (11285), 15 km SE of Robertson, W Cape, S Africa where it grew well-shaded under bushes. $8.
