Astrophytum Asterias. Cute as a button, listed as endangered. 

Astrophytum Asterias is commonly known as the 'Star Peyote'. It's native to Mexico and Texas, and inhabits similar regions. It looks like the Peyote in many ways, and grows side by side in the same habitats. 

Land clearing has pushed the Astrophytum cactus to the point of extinction. The US government has placed it, along with Peyote, on the federal endangered plants list. Its situation is pretty dire; only three known populations exist. And the total estimate is 4,000 surviving plants. 

Help keep Astros from going extinct by growing them at home. As there is no psychoactive ingredient, they are legal to grow in all states of Australia (of course, our shipping restrictions still apply). 

About this plant

Name: Astrophytum Asterias (Star Peyote)
Size: 3-4cm
Age: 2 years

Notes

Our Astros, like all our awesome buttons, are grown from seed by Aussie cactus growers. They feature developed root systems and are disease free. Some might have marks and wrinkles, but that's life. It shows on all of us. 

Disclaimer

The cactus you receive is a living plant and will vary in appearance, shape and size to the one pictured.

Fun fact

Astrophytum Asterias are often mistaken in the wild for Peyote. Poachers have often harvested them in with Peyote.
