Astrophytum myriostigma is from the Chihuahuan Desert in Mexico. This beautiful species, known by its gringo name of Bishops Cap, has no spines and a miter form. The body is variously gray-green with small white spots, sometimes quite dense. The flowers are relatively large and yellow. The cultivar Fukuryu was created in Japan and has numerous folds and protuberances between the ridges of the stems. These plants are seedlings in 4-inch pots.
