Dyckia delicata aurea (golden form.)

Dyckia delicata aurea or the golden form of delicata is a smaller plant and lives
much higher  on the very same slope Dyckia delicata type lives.

  1. Do all of the Dyckia delicata forms come from the same general location. Does each unique form grow as a single group or do the forms grow next to each other?

  2. They all live close by in nature. We all know too little to determine this is far or close enough to keep togetther or to isolate a species. dyckia sp Lagoão lives not farer than 50 kilometers from the delicatas.
    Delicata type and the rubra form grows together as any rubra does. the aurea one lives a top of the type form. The red forms live on another mountain close by in the very same valley.
