Dyckia hybrid
Dyckia is a genus in the Bromeliad Family, and the various species occur in southern Brasil and southward to Argentina. They usually form clumps of sharp-toothed rosettes, and their flowers are always in the yellow-to-orange range. There are many fine hybrids available in horticulture, and this is one example, with its purplish leaves dusted with silver scales, and its tall spires of orange flowers (set off by the red stalk and sepals).
