A group of these plants was found amid a Dyckia hebdingii population in Arroio dos Ratos
Rio Grande do Sul - Brazil
This is very intriguing as the next Dyckia chorestaminea population is found
far away from there.
This is, in every way, a stunning beautiful and good looking plant and a natural one.
How could you determine if this was a sp.? If you selfed seeds, and all the seedlings produced were basically uniform in type? Beautiful color & form whatever it is....
ReplyDeleteI do not determine. It is the taxonomy. Plant in wilderness are rarely hybrid and when we find one it is quite a discover.
ReplyDeletePlants in nature are isolated from other species of the very same genus...some differences do appear but this is the way nature can face future in evolution.
I may produce very uniform looking hybrids that breed true and even so it is not a species..we do not make species...this is a nature job.
