Dyckia 'Mercury' is a large growing terrestrial hybrid. A single rosette can mature at 20 inches across. It is a hybrid by Bill Baker. Tropiflora acquired seedlings of Brittle Star f2 from Bill Baker. Mercury is one of seedlings Tropiflora decided to keep and propagate. The leaves are narrow with large, hooked spines and thick silver scurf. Grows best in high light to full sun. Please remember that Dyckia's like to be hydrated during the drier months.

An older hybrid of unknown origin. Narrow arching silver green leaves with comb like spines with a graceful rosette. Matures at 7 inches across. 

This clone comes out of the (Brittle Star F2 x estevesii) x estevesii grex, but looked quite a bit different.  We thought it was a stray Orthyophytum at first. It has reddish brown foliage with hints of green, silver scurfing with large spines on recurving leaves.
