    • Astrophytum Myriostigma is a rare star cactus that has no spikes but white hairy scales that give it a characteristic chalk-white or silvery-grey appearance. It often has 5 ribs, but can grow up to 8 ribs with age. Astrophytum Myriostigma can grow up to 8 inches (20 cm) in diameter. This cactus variety is loved by people for its easygoing nature. It makes a superb addition to your indoor as well as outdoor spaces. However, to flaunt it at your place, place it on windowsills, bookshelves, or desks.

      Its flowers are funnel-shaped, glossy yellow, sweet-scented, and can grow up to 3 inches (7.5 cm) long. Mature plants can produce deep red fruits that are up to 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter.

      All of the plants may be shipped bare roots.

      Green Thumb Guarantee

      Worried about plant care? We’ve got you covered! If your plant care goes haywire within 6 months of your order, you can claim a $15 gift card for your plant.
      How it works:
      • For each plant, you can receive a gift card.
      • The more plants you order, the more you can claim, up to a maximum of $50 gift card per order.
      • One-time claim per order.
      • For subscriptions, you can claim once per subscription.
      • Valid for orders from Aug 28, 2024- Dec 31, 2024
      • Email your order number & plant pictures to support@succulentsbox.com to claim your gift card
    • Provide porous soil with adequate drainage, pots with drainage hole are recommended. Bright, filtered light and ample airflow. Water thoroughly when soil is dry to the touch. Never let your succulents sit in water. Do NOT water on the leaves. If you water from beneath by letting the plant sit in a saucer of water, make sure to pour off any excess water after a few minutes. The hotter it is outside, the faster your soil will dry out, so you’ll need to water more often if you live in a hot area. Water with caution in winter, as the plant can lose its roots if the soil stays cold and wet for extended periods; protect from frost to prevent scarring.
