🌟🪐 Astrophytum Myriostigma – The Star of the Desert Show 🪐🌟
Say hello to the Astrophytum Myriostigma, a.k.a. the Bishop’s Cap—but don’t let the name fool you. This cactus is less “church hat” and more celestial superstar. With its distinct five-ribbed shape, charming white speckles, and geometric perfection, it looks like something you'd find growing on the moon (but, you know, friendlier).
☀️ Sun-Soaked & Stylish – This star-shaped stunner thrives in bright, indirect to full sun, where its signature white flecks shimmer like stardust. The more light, the more sparkle—cue the plant paparazzi.
💦 Low Maintenance, High Impact – Water only when the soil is bone dry. Think “desert monk with a skincare routine.” It’s drought-tolerant, fuss-free, and totally cool with you forgetting about it for a bit.
🌵 Speckled Sophistication – Unlike its smoother Nudum cousin, this version flaunts its fuzzy white trichomes like nature’s version of a sequin jacket. It’s the glam cousin that always shows up glowing.
Perfect for modern interiors, collectors of the weird and wonderful, or anyone looking to add a touch of cosmic calm to their space, Astrophytum Myriostigma is a cactus that’s both striking and soothing.
✨🌿 Bring home this celestial sculpture—it’s like a tiny galaxy growing in a pot.

Plant Sizing Guide
What Size Am I Getting? Let's Break It Down.
We get it—plant sizes can be confusing. Is a “small” the size of a golf ball or a grapefruit? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Below is a quick guide to help you understand what each size means when shopping our plants. Measurements refer to the plant body, not including the pot (unless noted).
Tiny
- Baby plants or starter plugs. May be rooted or freshly cut. 0.5"–1.5" wide.
- Example: Butterwort plug, small seedling
Small
- Young plant, well-rooted, 1.5"–3" wide or tall.
- Example: Aeonium cutting, sundew cluster
Medium
- Established plant, 3"–5" wide/tall. Ready for repotting or display.
- Example: 2–3 year-old cactus, flowering flytrap
Large
- Mature plant, 5"–8" wide/tall. Great for centerpieces or statement planters.
- Example: Dioscorea elephantipes, pitcher plant
XL (Collector Size)
- Rare or mature specimen, 8"+ or unusually large or sculptural in form.
- Example: Caudex giants, multi-head aeoniums
📦 Note:
- Pot sizes (if included) are listed separately on product pages.
- Some species naturally stay small—even large ones might only be a few inches wide. Check individual listings for details.
- Photos are of representative plants—your plant may vary slightly (because nature’s not into clones).
