Very nice work!
I find it very difficult to pollinate digitostigma with other astrophytum species - I never get seeds out of it when I try. Any special tricks?

We tried some crossings using it both as mother and as father.
Crossing caput medusae x kikko nudum (as father) we obtained caput medusae looking plants.
We are quite sure about the 'crossing' because they were the only 2 plants in flower.
Maybe it is selfpollination?
