This page is under construction, please enjoy the images (all photos copyright Daniel A. Green). Text will be provided at a later date.

Read a description of O. dillenii from 1819 (in the Supplementum Plantarum Succulentarum). Also, download a print of O. dillenii from the Botanical Register 3: plt. 255 1817(1818).

Hartmut Böhm published a very nice article about O. dillenii in 2008 (J PACD, 2008, volume 10; page 148-170). Ian Menkins has written a very thoughtful article comparing and contrasting O. dillenii with O. stricta, 2010 (this large file has many illustrations and may take an extra minute to load).
