Exceptionally beautiful this Dyckia sp discoides has a plus amid its leaves:
it does stands frosts an in fact it  gets eve better looking after a cold winter.
It is a Santa Catarina  mountain dweller and takes cold as much as Dyckia reitzii does.
It gets a bit bigger than it is shown here, the size of a flat dinner dish.
For sure it is one of the most fantastic new findings in terms of Dyckia species. 
Flowers are numerous, tiny and yellow.
Flower stem is heavely branched, branches bend down as in D. magnifica and are super thin and fragile.
There is a green version as the colored is the most numerous one.
Santa Catarina has more unknown never seen before Dyckia species.
We shall see some more soon...I hope.
