Hello,
1) 2) is definately A.hybrid COxAS (A. coahuilense (mother) x A. asterias (father)-> F1 hybrid)
see here http://www.cactus-art.biz/schede/ASTROPHYTUM/Astrophytum_hybrids/Astrophytum_hybrid_CO-AS/Astrophytum_hybrid_CO-AS.htm
the second one is a strongylogonum hybrid in my opinion, maybe a nudum one x a white form one, not kikko, not fukuryu. a lot of normal myrio has little sign like that, and that's why you need so much selection to obtain a good kikko or fukuryu.
Thanks for answer me!!!
I had not thought of A.hybrid COxAS, but seeing pictures of www.cactus-art.biz, I confirmed.
does the 3).- need a good selection for curious results?
Regards
i was talking about the third, sorry.
the way is long, but not shut, if you think it is the one you want to pick to start selecting, why not! :D
