Dyckia brevifolia- var. Izabel



Dyckia brevifolia Izabel
This jumbo Dyckia brevifolia is native to the same region of the
already known and smaller Dyckia brevifolia.
Its flower bracteas are always red/wine, the flowers are a deeper yellow shade.
The plant is twice the size of a ordinary brevifolia and also:
Flowers in a very distint time. Dyckia brevifolia Izabel blooms in Autumn time.
This way this two different plants never hybridize in nature.
I am proposing for a name Dyckia brevifolia autunalis or Dyckia Izabelii ( The one who found it in 1983, mother of mine.) if it turns to be a totally different being.
