Dyckia fosteriana nivosa affinis

This came from the very same spot Dyckia fosteriana nivosa was found in Lapa - Paraná
The entire population known of Dyckia fosteriana nivosa dwells on rocky outcrop in
the middle of a fig plantation.
Also on this rocks grows these very small plants. At the beginning It was supposed to young Dyckia fosteriana nivosa. In fact it is a new one Dyckias species. Its leaves are a bit broader
than nivosa. The crown is just eight centimeters across.
In order to determine if this is new and what it really is we need much more information and much observation.
All in all this is a cutie ultra Dwarf Dyckia our grandmother would happily give one of her fake front teeth to have one in her windowsill along her Haworthias.
