A collection which we found on the over-grazed high altitude plateau of Sierra de los Cuchumatanes, also home to some of the colourful Mayan Indians at 3200m in 2004. Selected for its large flowers with strap-shaped soft green rosette-forming foliage 30cm long, with deep-yellow ray-flowers to 8cm across on upright stems 40cm tall. Best cultivated in fertile soil which is well drained in full sun or partly shaded, protect the roots from severe frost.
