Dyckia ID?

#1

Post by JD33 »

Trying to identify this plant. The 4-foot tall flower spikes are unbranched and coated with a brown fuzz. The plant has a spread of about 18" (potted, so it could be larger in the ground).
It seems pretty distinctive, but I haven't been able to find anything online that looks like this.

Wow that’s nice looking and never seen that type before. Kinda wonder if it’s not exactly a dyckia for say and from another species similar like hetchia.
