The narrowest leaves in a Dyckia.
For sure this is a nature marvel.
Grows on a rocky hill close to Porto Alegre, the biggest city in South.
This granit rock mountain is known as Morro da Fumaça (Smoke Hill).
This plant grows within rock cracks where organic soil is formed by the debris brought from up above by rain water. It is also found amid patches of low grasses.
This plant can stand low temperatures below freezing.
Always have in mind ice as well ice cold temperatures in Brazil hardly ever stands till noon.
Plants do not stay frozen days in a row.
