Gardening is like cooking. To improve, you need to be willing to make mistakes and experiment. Also, common names are garbage. Zone 9b, West Sac, CA.

I don't count how often this #Astrophytum-myriostigma flowers every season, but I know that this one has been a record-breaker. #Succulents frickin' love the SacTown summer heat.

Got this #AstrophytumMyriostigma at #FloraGrubbGardens in SF in Feb 2017. I was initially hesitant because I was worried it would get too big. One staff member assured me that it's a slow grower. He was right. #cactus #flower #cactusflower #bishopsmitercactus 31May2019

Can't remember when I got this guy, but it was at Flora Grubb in San Francisco.
