Christian Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 Hi all, i am growing a plant with the location "Ciparados De Serra", but can't find that place in the internet. Can somebody please tell me if there really is a place like "Ciparados De Serra"? I can't find anything with this name and so i think, there must be something wrong (or am i just blind?).

Christian Hello Christian May be it´s Aparados da Serra Aparados da Serra bzw. Itaimbezinho heißt das Bergland an der Bruchkante der Hochebene zur Küstenregion an der Grenze zwischen Rio Grande do Sul und Santa Catarina im Süden Brasiliens, es ist eine von Brasiliens interessantesten Natursehenswürdigkeiten. Es grenzt an die Serra Geral, beides sind Nationalparks im Bereich der Mata Atlântica.

RL7836 Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 I'm not aware of this location but I had something similar with a U. longifolia I acquired a few months back. It is supposed to be from Catotes, Brazil. However, I cannot find reference to this location anywhere. Interestingly, this plant grows much larger than any of my others in the same conditions. If anyone reading this thread knows of Catotes. BR, please share the info... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea about the U. tridentata, but I am growing a form of U. longifolia that is labelled as originating from Catoles, Brazil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos Rohrbacher Posted August 26, 2011 Report Share Posted August 26, 2011 Hi people, the people change the names and make a big confusion with brazilian plant locations. Catolés is a city in the Chapada Diamantina Region, in Bahia State: http://www.panoramio.com/photo/20252903 Aparados da Serra is a national park in southern Brazil (have a beautiful canyons): http://www.bemtevibrasil.com.br/aparados.html Regards.

Fernando Rivadavia Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 Catolés is a small "village" in the municipality of Piatã or Rio de Contas (can't remember now). This is where I found in 2005 the largest U.longifolia ever recorded, see this link: http://www.cpukforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=17595&st=0&p=147649&hl=catoles&fromsearch=1entry147649 Thus, I am not surprised that your plants are larger. :) And yes, U.tridentata from Aparados da Serra is another one of my collections.
