Hi
Could anyone help ID this Haworthia? I got it from Harrogate Flower Show and it was labelled as H. attenuata, which it clearly isn't. My best guess is H pygmaea
thanks
Lee

I've taken matters into my own hands somewhat and done some molecular analysis "on the side". DNA sequence suggest the closest match is H. emelyae which seems reasonable
