One of my many prides and joys went into flower this week! I'm so proud of the little guy, and so mad at myself for forgetting that A. asterias is self-sterile..

nice! congrats. I had one flower a couple months ago for the first time too. The flower being slightly out of focus in the last pic makes it look like a volcano or an iris. pretty cool.

I vote you get a SuperKabuto. They're rather rad.

That's pretty much how I feel when I see an Astrophytum in flower.

The local cactus nursery has about 50 of them, they're $2 each. This weekend I'm gonna pick up a couple more so I can pollinate and grow from seed
