Astrophytum myriostigma “onzuka” seedlings
Posted by Stuart under: Cacti; Propagation .
Again, these Astrophytum myriostigma “onzuka” are seedlings grown from three-year-old seed obtained from the BCSS discussion forum seed pool.
They were very quick to germinate - the first were up in a matter of days - but have taken their time in developing since then compared with the standard Astrophytum myriostigma seedlings I’ve also got on the go. Their white flecking is already noticeably far denser than the species.
Incidentally I’m hoping that the quality of photography on here will improve over the coming weeks now that I’ve sussed out the manual focus on my camera!
