I was one of the first subscribers to Alsterworthia International when I was the librarian for the San Diego Cactus and Succulent Society (approximately in the year 2000).. He was always very cordial in all our correspondence. RIP Harry

I remember Harry from the days he used to sell plants at the North West Mart , bought many rare and unusual species off him over the years.
Harry was a soft spoken true gentleman RIP
