Product Details

The Astrophytum myriostigma, commonly known as the Bishop's Cap cactus, is a unique, slow-growing, and spineless species native to Mexico. It is characterized by a distinctive, star-shaped, globular body, usually with 3 to 10 prominent ribs, often covered in silvery-white, fuzzy dots (trichomes). It is highly prized for its structural look, producing large. Ribs: Typically 5 vertical, deep ridges (rarely 4–8) that form a distinct star shape when viewed from above. Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light; sensitive to sunburn if kept in direct, intense afternoon sun. Watering: Requires minimal water. Keep dry in winter and use a well-draining succulent mix, allowing it to dry out completely between waterings.
