Hechtia (J. G. H. Hecht, who died in 1837). Bromeliaceae. Mexican succulent plants, one species of which is perhaps cult, in a very few fanciers' collections of tender plants for its dense rosettes or recurved spiny lvs., which are purple above from the middle to the tip and silvery beneath. The genus is distinguished by having dioecious fls. The fls. have no decorative value, being }^in. across, white, in small sessile, axillary, yellow-bracted heads, borne at intervals of an inch or so on a very slender scape 2 ft. long.—Fifteen species. Give perforated pots and high temperature. The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
