The name
Ever-Living is the generic name of plants with peculiar characteristics: to be harvested, they retain their color and shape after picking over a long period of time.
Two genders and more over than 1000 species are in
Eriocaulaceae family. These plants lie in sierras fields, in various altitudes (
Cerrado Highlands more or less 1000 meters or, by the last two photos, more than 1300 meters), from the
Chapada Diamantina to
Chapada dos Guimarães.
The biggest species can reach a height of 1 meter and have an age of 30 years.
Their growth capacity showed resistant plants, which we can see growing again after a fire (those with a minimum height of 30 cm).
Sempre Viva - Eternidade, imortalidade e permanência. (language portuguese)
Sempre Viva - Chapada
Diamantina (language portuguese).
