I could not see any new flowers of cacti in this morning.

The attached photo is an updated appearence of fused cacti. I did various combinations of cacti fusions and the photo is one of them.
Fused cacti on the photo are Astrophytum hybrid + Ariocarpus retusus v furfuraceus. Their body parts were connected. Both of them have grown with well balance.

One gymnocalycium was in flower in this morning. Strong spines limit the flower to open freely.

Hi Frank!
The weather is quite good for Astrophytum flowers.
Did you get the seeds from Astrophytum myriostigma cv. Onzuka X Fukuryu? I got some, will sow next spring.
Bryan
