Dyckia splendens, the uncomparable one....

Even Gorgeous here is two Stations behind.
The plant deserves the name Splendens no doubt.

Big teeth,
Native to Santa Catarina,
just big and not huge,
perfect coloration,
unseen architecture,
multi-leaved plant.
Incomparable, unforgettable.

Blooms in yellow tiny yellow flowers and its seeds are minute ones.
Hard to clone and it seems the only method for cloning is dividing heads.
Dividing heads take much longer than any other method of cloning.
Flower stalk is much branched and these branches are slender and very
thin. Flowers are disposed in two rows along these downward pointed slender
thin branches.
