Daytime has been shorter and max. temperature has also been around lower 20s 'C in here.
My Astrophytum myriostigma v nudum cv Redbean khoyo, kikkou has been turning color. This plant was very green in summer but I think plant knows autumn is in here.
Sown seeds in 2006 and grafted seedlings. The current diameter is 11 cm. I think this is the last year for turning color on this plant.

That's fantastic. I love the form of this plant, and the variegation makes it just that little bit more special.

Awesome Hanazono. Sorted my problems with all your pics Peerguardian was killing info from webshots


I must say Kohyo is my favourite cultivar. Do you have any other Kohyo cvs ? I have a few but they are still smallish

Hellonasty
I have quite many small seedlings, same cultiva as attached photo.
I also have other types of kohyo, myriostigma cv kohyo and myriostigma v nudum kohyo.
I have collected seeds crossed onzuka x nudum cv kikkou kohyo this year.
I hope I could get similar plants shown by Carlo & Daniele.

Another myriostigma v nudum cv khoyo. This plant is under rooting.
It is turned color in cold winter.

Thats a realy nice one Hanazono, I'm very envious.


Have you had good success rooting these Myrios ?

Hellonasty
Rooting of myriostigma is very easy.
I put a cactus onto an empty black pot after dried cutting face.
Waiting until roots come out from cuttiong face and put it on soil after confirmed rooting.
This method allows to get good rooting success ratio and the cutting face is never rotted out.
The attached photo was taken when roots were coming out from cutting face of myriostigma, I put on the photo yesterday.
Hanazono

Thanks for that, what is the powder ? Lime ?

Hellonasty
Yes I use garden-lime for drying cutting face.
Hanazono

Did you use a rooting hormone here?
