Product Description

The Astrophytum myriostigma var. nudum BALL TYPE x KIKKO, commonly known as Bishop’s Cap Cactus, is a unique, spineless cactus with smooth, green to bluish-green stems that are ribbed into 4-5 sections. Unlike the standard Astrophytum myriostigma var. nudum BALL TYPE x KIKKO, this nudum variety lacks the characteristic white trichomes (small, hair-like structures) that give it a speckled look, resulting in a clean, bare appearance. As it matures, it may form a star-like shape. In spring and summer, it produces yellow, daisy-like flowers that bloom at the top of the ribs. It is a slow-growing cactus that adds elegance to any collection.

• Temperature requirements: Thrives in warm temperatures, ideally 70-85°F (21-29°C); protect from frost.

• Fertilization: Use a diluted cactus fertilizer during the growing season, every 4-6 weeks.

• Pruning: Not required, but removing dead flowers can maintain appearance.

• Common pests: Watch for mealybugs and spider mites; treat with insecticidal soap if needed.
