| I have tried to make a strawberry-milk color cacti. I crossed: (1) Astrophytum myriostigma cv Onzuka x myriostigma v nudum cv red bean khoyo, kikkou (2) Astrophytum myriostigam v nudum cv red bean khoyo, kikkou x myriostigma cv Onzuka Sown seeds on 07/10/09 I grafted 4 seedlings (1) and 3 seedlings (2). It seems seedlings (1) showing strawberry-milk color.  |

| Hellonasty The attached photo is one of second crossings, taken yeserday. I selected 3 seedlings showing Onzuka chracter and grafted. Since fathers' gene was too strong, the scion was a simple "Shima-iri Onzuka" as shown in the photo. More than 50 seedlings germinated from same seeds patch have been remained. I will select several seedlings and will graft next spring. Hanzono  |

| rado It is early autumn in here. The plant has been turning from summer color, green to autum/winter color i.e. khoyo. I think it will be red in spring becuse the father is red bean-khoyo. It is a yellow cake in this morning. The diameter of the plant is 5.5 cm. Hanazono  |
