Ah, if I was to choose one, only and just one plant, a single species among all I would choose this one: Dyckia hebdingii the blue lady of the southern rocks.
Small and not that small,
compact and well arranged rosette,
harmonious and graceful,
blue/silver and...and...out from this plain,drab and faint world.
When the Almighty Creator came back by the fifth time, ( It was needed something always went wrong...or was in need of a repair... and why not a total remaking...) The Guy went South... He had Buenos Aires and the Tango in mind. As He had dance the samba in Rio the night before He was quite late... In its way he stopped in Rio gande do Sul. Just to take a look... on what He had done...
...The Almighty let fall from His backpack a most wonderful plant He was planning to cultivate in Paradise. Three, just three fell... one is this one here, the other as the Almighty backpack was zipper opened, fell a bit before in Santa Catarina and it came to be Dyckia Perau da Cabrita.
The third one He picked up and put back into His luggage and His way back to Rio...good things should be seem many more times Samba and our mulatas ...those gorgeous coffee skinned women in Rio de Janeiro.
Ah, the third one? This is for those of you to cultivate...in Paradise, in Lord´s Garden...
Look, The almighty was plenty in reason:
this rock lady is magnificent!
Ah, could it be better?
No, it was not for no reason it was into the Creator´s backpack...
...out from this drab and plain human flower pots...
Ah, I would like you to see it when the angels are singing... listen...listen....
This for sure was the " réserve du Patron".
...missing the skies above?
