Wow.. these are normally quite available just about anywhere HAworthias are sold- even Home Depot sometimes has this species.. see them at local LA nurseries as well as on line (look for them at Aridlands.com)

Re: Haworthia Coarctatas
The availablity of H. coarctatas may well be dependant upon your location.
H. coarctatas is probably not as readily available here in the Southeast as one would wish; and, ordering from Arid Lands, Mesa Gardens, Miles 2 Go, or other on-line C&S stores is often the only way to get even the most common succulents. I expect that because our humidity and rainfall is hostile to many, if not most, succulents, they can be percieved as difficult to grow (or keep alive) and the demand for them here has not been high enough for local nurseries to stock them. (Sometimes just the air seems to turn some of them to mush!) I am very happy to see an increase in the number and variety of C&S plants in local nurseries over the past few years, but we still have a long way to go before we catch up to West coast availablity!
