Dyckia marnier-lapostollei a giant form

Dyckia marnier-lapostollei
Some botanist are even saying this is not marnier-lapostollei but all odds leads to a positive
answer. Crowns can be as wide as 80cm! This is big! Of course nopt huge but impressing big.
The plant was found in Goiás. It doesn´t make self fertile seeds and its flower are orange red attached to a slightly branched forwer stalk.
the plant seems to go on a tremendous effort and energy consuming to produce flowers.
It needs to recover from blooming.
A fantastic Dyckia species.
