Dyckia lindelvaldeae X Dyckia pectinata

Have you ever seen something like this?

Dyckias are all dream plants!!

This marvel was made by Apolônia Grade, a friend, biologist and botanist:

a dreamer.....

Brazil will soon show some of the most unimaginable beautiful Dyckia hybrids.

Some Southern Species will give birth to the fancy big ones Dyckia hybrids.

We have only just begun.

to create beauties one must have plenty of new material, be audacious, bold and

above all without any prejudice.

Fancy hybrid Dyckias are the best way besides knowledge for preserving the true species

exactly where they are.

Reserves are being made here in order to preserve some of the most spectacular Dyckia species.

We have improved inded but nothing is done without a full brain and a full stomach.

Preservation is only made with knowledge, respect and understanding is all around.

This is one of the main roles of any University all around the world: build a better man not just a capable one!
