established and has a 5” bulb with 36” leaves. $650.

5 year old seedling, 3”x 9” pot
1” bulb 3 to 4 leaves $15.
D. ( ? ) We have not yet found any one who could tell us what this Dioon is. It has been nicknamed Dickii by a friend and since then the name has sort of stuck. The plant is pretty amazing since we got it 7 years ago, it has consistently thrown a flower and full head of leaves every year, plus it has thrown a small flower from the side of the trunk that produced good seed. The main flower is very large and has long dense brown hair completely covering it, plus the seeds are a different orange color and the leaves are long and narrow and it has a 40” trunk. We have seedlings from this plant for $12., we also have some female offshoots available starting at $250.

Dioon Rzedowskii this one has a 3” bulb and 48” leaves.
