Dyckias...These creatures of the Light are mostly Brazilian. Many of them are still to be seen by the very first time. Come on in. Let us see some. This Blog was created to show you the plants in my garden and also help you to keep happier Dyckias. This is the beginning of the book:THE ALLURING DYCKIAS. I may share some seeds with you. This way we help Dyckias to be known, understood and cherished.

Dyckia lindelvaldeae
The plant Dyckia lindelvaldeae is a wonder in itself, rare, small, silvery to the extreme. wide leaved and well architetured but the flowers are a shame besides being terribly stinking. Dyckias in general are poor flowered.
A lost friend of mine, who died from A.I.D.S. wanted me to make a hybrid of great beauty which bloomed with a terrible stink. The name would be "Logic" after a quote from Spock, of Star Trek. The point would be that logic is only as good as its assumptions. Bad assumptions=bad results, even if the logic itself was rational and beautiful. It might need a cross with a large flowered species and a generation or two of selections to get rearrianged genes.
