This long known plant was one of the first to cross the Atlantic.The plant is an olimpic swimmer, a prodigious creature! Dyckia marnier, fosteriana and dawsoni followed its steps (fathoms) and they all turned to be classical Dyckias outside Brasil, all very good sailors or fliers. The new discoveries especially the southern ones are very difficult to be seen outside Brazil. The more Northern new species seems to be just a matter of time and money and they learn how to swim bravely to Europe , Asia and America. For a Dyckia to swim back to Brazil it is far more difficult. When I saw this beauty with golden glow I felt in love and asked everybody to send one to me . No one got moved until some guy in Japan e.mailled saying he had already sent one to my address. One and I managed to give him back some precious natives. Well, in just one year this plant turned in 12 new plants and I am tottaly up to my nose with this marvel. A human touch may do wonders to a plant and this learned how to swim back to my Santa Catarina and reproduced wonderfully and fast.
Dyckia brevifolia golden glow an olimpic swimmer that learned how to swim back to Brazil. What an epic journey! Got back renewed, updated, bettered in many ways.
Here conspicuously shining in my garden....and reproducing fastly.....
The photographer is very happy but continue to be a lousy one look the low quality of the pic.
