very nice plants and good flower!

To all the members: since some topics are becoming quite long for replies and so on, please open new topics dividing the cultivars for a specific character, for example all the kikko nudum and the results you got all in the same topic, all the fukuryu nudum in the same topic, all the white forms of fukuryu in the same topic...in order to have a more clear view.

thanks everybody!

Astrophytum asterias cv. Kikko, grafted in Dez. 2011

[Ariocarpus]

This is a other hybrid...kikkos didn`t have spines.

A plant from Thai last year.

[lophario]

usually lophophora havent spines too, but seedlings have 

[Ariocarpus]

yes, jourdaniana have, but they also have them, when they are adult plants 

So let`s see your asterias in a few month. Show than pictures here please.

@cortona: NICE!

[Carlo & Daniele]

The second one is nice! Does it mantain a quite regular shape and single headed when growing bigger?

thanks

[cortona]

i can tell it for sure, wen i buy the motherplant it was single headed and around 7 /8 cm after it start to produce a single sideshot, i've grafted this but soon i've lost the motherplant, after this the pup lost the apex and stop the growt for two years after this it start to pup and that is one if it grafted in spring.
