Products > Dyckia 'Silver Superstar'   Dyckia 'Silver Superstar'     [2nd Image] Habit and Cultural Information Category: Succulent Family: Bromeliaceae (Bromeliads) Origin: South America Evergreen: Yes Flower Color: Orange Bloomtime: Summer Height: <1 foot Width: 1-2 feet Exposure: Full Sun Irrigation (H2O Info): Low Water Needs Winter Hardiness: 20-25° F 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.  This information is based on research conducted about this plant in our nursery library and from reliable online sources. We also take into consideration observations of it in our nursery of crops, as well as of plants growing in the nursery's garden and those in other gardens we have visited. We will incorporate comments received from others and welcome getting feedback from anyone who may have additional information, particularly if it includes cultural information that would aid others in growing Dyckia 'Silver Superstar'.     [MORE INFO]
