all'Astrophytum asterias, a cactus native to Mexico, whose name derives from the greek aster (star), the characteristic shape. It has a bulbous stem slow-growing (up to 10 cm in diameter), marked by more or less deep furrows and covered with the characteristic areolae, with distribution varies from one hybrid and provided with small spines.
prefers semi-arid land and slightly chalky. Be careful with the watering! Better than too little ... that too! Tolerates low temperatures for short periods. It multiplies by seed and produces interesting flowers.
