Astrophytum myriostigma var. nudum - simetrie perfecta si eleganta fara spini

Astrophytum myriostigma var. nudum is a rare and elegant botanical variety of the well-known “bishop’s cactus” (or “bishop’s star”), notable for the absence of the white fuzz typical of the standard species. Instead of the floury appearance, this variety is distinguished by a completely smooth and shiny surface, of deep green or bluish hues, which highlights its star shape and the perfect symmetry of its ribs.
