Dyckia albolutea

Dyckia albolutea is a rarely recorded spiny terrestrial bromeliad with no wild records in GBIF, presumably from Brazil like most of the genus. Dyckia grow in full sun on rock outcrops that are wet in summer and dry in winter; give strong light, generous summer water and a drier, cooler winter.
