Description:

It is one of the most spectacular species of the genus. It has a large symmetrical rosette, consisting of numerous leaves with indented margins, up to 60 cm long and up to 2-3 cm wide, which narrow towards the tip. The epidermis is of a light green color, covered with a dense layer of a whitish pruina that gives the plant a silver appearance, hence the name of the species. During the flowering period, it blooms with white flowers, often with pink-purple hues towards the tips. The Dyckia argentea is a very decorative plant, ideal for adorning rock gardens.

Plant care:

It likes an exposure to full sun in rather airy locations.

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 10 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.

Water moderately but only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water the plant once a week in spring and summer and suspend watering completely in autumn and winter.

The best soil is a well draining one, for example formed by a mixture of peat and pumice so that the water does not stagnate.

They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
