Dyckia 'Silver Superstar' - A beautiful succulent plant with flattened 1 foot wide rosettes of pale pink-tinged silvery leaves and orange flowers in summer. This is one of the slowest growing and attractive Dyckia that we grow - a choice specimen plant for the garden or pot. Plant in full sun with little to occasional irrigation. Hardy to 20-25 F. This plant likely has another valid name but we named it 'Silver Superstar' to differentiate it as one of many untagged Dyckia forsteriana hybrids dug up and propagated from the Santa Barbara garden of the late Jim Prine.
The information provided on this page is based on the research we have conducted about this plant in our nursery library, from what we have found about it on reliable online sources, as well as from observations of our nursery crops of this plant as well as of plants growing in the nursery's garden and those in other gardens. We also will incorporate comments received from others and welcome getting feedback from anyone who may have additional information, particularly if this information includes cultural information that would aid others in growing Dyckia 'Silver Superstar'. |
