Astrophytum asterias, commonly called the star- cactus, is native to the Chihuahuan Desert along the border between Texas and Mexico. Threats to this endangered plant include conversion of its habitat to agricultural and urban land uses, competition with exotic grasses introduced for cattle forage, and collection of wild plants for the cactus trade. In order to protect existing and newly-established wild populations, conservationists and commercial cactus growers have been working to ensure that specimens of Astrophytum asterias being traded and sold among plant collectors are not obtained from the wild, but propagated from cultivated stock.

I no longer own this book. It does say there are some active constituents in it, but I can't recall if mescaline is one of them.

It's definitely a well put together book, although the name implies something that I 'theologically' disagree with. But yeah, its got a few nice things in there, including recipes!

These plants have very sensitive roots and they're also prone to mealy bugs.

Use a sharp (mostly mineral) soil and go easy on the water. Don't water at all in the winter, or perhaps just once or twice.

If your plant is happy, it will flower every few weeks in the summer. If not, there could be cultural problems.
