Dyckia dawsonii is a beautiful spiny dyckia that has been considered to be more of a collector plant. It has been used for special hybrids such as Brittlestar. It has thin leaves with nice sized spines and can get a beautiful red to purple color if given enough sun. A single head can get up to 14 inches across but can cluster to become larger over time. Information on the internet says this plant is only cold hardy to the mid 20s F, but I tested these down to 18F before they showed any damage. This is a great collector's plant and is a great one to be used for breeding. |
