Abromeitiella brevifolia
12th May 2007
A lovely little prickly cushion from Argentina. Who would believe that such a compact little tuft could prickle the hands so effectively. It is hardy here, but it has to be dry dry dry.
Eventually forms large mounds of hard foliage, but it can die out in patches if it gets too stressed.

Produces the most wonderful deep green flowers. It only produces them a few at a time!
