If your coldness zone is adequate for these plants (most of them can be grown all over Europe and coastal and southern areas of the United States, -15º C is the minimum guaranteed temperature, although some may withstand more), then you will have relatively worry-free plants for outdoor cultivation once you have established them.

This is a very common plant in Chile, forming carpets in the higher reaches of the mountains, and all of the local huasos, the Chilean cowboys, know it too well, because it sticks to the skin of the horses, clothes, etc. The good thing about is that its thorns are relatively soft. Still it makes a...

| This plant is common at medium elevations in central Chile and is easy to grow. Of the acaenas, it is not very known, but I find it very much attractive due to its small, compact leaves which form a carpet, small, almost pigmy size which would fit almost anyplace, and the fruits do not have the...
