Bleeding Hearts are all great plants.
They surprise your eyes with intense central crown color hence the name.
They are good sized and fit on any sunny windowsill.
Bleeding Hearts have immaculate silver under leaves
This contrasts prettily with the bloody red of the center of the crown
and also with the vivid red casted green of the plant.
This is a nice Hybrid all Brazilian made, all home made, all perfect.
Dyckia Bleeding Heart
(Dyckia brevifolia from Barra do Cocho - SC X Dyckia fosteriana from type place in Paraná )
This Hybrid is a beautiful colored plant.
It can be deeply red in times of sunny days and during
the short days of winter it is less colorful as it is shown here.
We are in the shortest winter days now in the beginning of July.
Its flowers are deep yellow and resemble those of the brevifolia but also
a little bit tinted in orange from Dyckia fosteriana.
This is a perfect hybrid and I think future will show Bleeding Hearts in several
new strains. I do think hybridizers are somewhat like a painter and totally like a dreamer.
Imagine this plant being yellow stripped?
What about some variegation in here?
Wow!!!!!
Japanese love variegation and it seems they hold some secrets...
Look what they have made to Agaves, Haworthias and other succulents.
