G'morning malospine
On the top of your plant, I can see flower buds/pup like things.
Are they flower buds?
Hello Frank, I'd love to talk to you, to answer your question I say that in some of these plants, many of these are flowers that do not open but become seedlings, plants where I have my ex the sprouts flourished, and the flower is completely yellow, very similar to ornatum, I should have pictures soon posterior.
This is a photo of the plant in flower today, it is a small flower here, but generally it is much bigger, and it blooms only if I remove all the buds on the plant

G'morning malospine
It is very nice flower.
I am not sure but the flower of Astrophytum in autumn is smaller than normal.
Is it in autumn in your place?
Grafted myriostigma or other Astrophytum mixed myriostigma gene will make flower bud/pop like things.
They do not open.
My Onzuka made one pop/bud before and I grafted.
The cutting face was quite porous but it took.
Flower bud/pop attached on Onzuka
