This cute red Dyckia hybrid comes from another yet hybridized plant. Dyckia platyphylla has been taken as true species since it was said so. The plant was supposed to exist up North in Brazil but never it was found anywhere. Some claim it was found in Rio Grande Sul some 5000 km down South. Also Dyckia platyphylla is a plant everybody can make no matter where to be.
Dyckia marnier-lapostollei and Dyckia brevifolia crossings produce perfect patyphyllas.
Some different nuanaces do appears depending on the plants one uses. There are many different regional varieties of marnier and now we know of some different brevifolia too.
Dyckia brevifolia was considered a closed species with no more than one only look. This is not so and a more carefull visit to its habitats revealed some quite different loooking Dyckia brevifolia.
We now have orange flowered Dyckia brevifolia and also some light indument covered ones.
We know of very big Dyckia brevifolias and some really small ones.
Dyckias are all fantastic plants and taxonomists acted with them as they had did with all the other plants. Dyckias need years of following in the field and under cultivation prior from being dismantled
turned into dry straw and described. Dyckia has fooled many hurried ones.
Not long ago a guy in Europe would describe a Tropical plant without even thinking in knowing its habitat. This was totally out of question and the well preserved and sitting buns owners used to commit applaused botanic atrocities.
Without offering your skin to our blood eager mosquitoes one is bond for failing and just trusting on bushmen to count on a constant flow of new bids from our wilderness is highly risky as it so revealed and proved to be.
Mix this situation to an effervescent vanity fair and you will have a bit (sometimes not just a bit) of everything. We have hybrids described as species. Plants from Mexico described as native to Minas Gerais (Maybe a Cucurucucu Paloma with our Minas accent.) Sterile plants described as true species.
Just to name a few. Talking on names...what gymnastic maneuvers my tongue ought go through in order to spell some names! Some names we swear to belong to a notorious Brithish guy maybe a member of the Brithish Royal Family so British it is... I pronounce it as they do along the Thames ... as with a mouthfull of hot potato. I swear I can ever hear the Big Ben in the back.... Funny, indeed!
Dyckias are the last chance one has to get the names of the beloved and loved ones linked to a superior plant (root, foliage, flower and fruit). Most of the new findings are lichens, fungi, algea...
Why? Who knows? Who wander through the Human cavernous minds?
For God sake, leave those names for airports, roads, streets, squares, parks, avenues, ways, horses, cows, beloved parakeets and adored toucans, turtle pets, even a good egg layer chicken but save the Dyckias... my tongue aches.
Much , much easier to say in German: 8.888 ill guys in the hopital. If you say that and a guy in Berlin understands you...congratulations! You are capable of anything! You can even go to the Moon...spread your ar...ups, wings...
Well this plant here is :
