Highlights
Astrophytum myriostigma var. nudum (Fric): A forest green, spineless cactus, with deep ribs. These deep ribs give the plant the shape of a star when viewed from above. Large, pale-yellow flowers adorn this cactus in the spring. It's differentiated from regular Bishop's Cap in its lack of white spotting. This plant is fully rooted in a 6.0" pot.
This cactus variety will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures it can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. Cactus need bright sunlight, great drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 70% to 80% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply and wait for the soil to completely dry out before watering again.
