☀️ Light
☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)
The Astrophytum Myriostigma thrives in plenty of natural light. While it can handle some direct sunlight, it’s happier in a spot where the light is bright but indirect, such as near a south-facing window with some sheer curtains for protection.
? Water
?▫️▫️ (Low)
This cactus prefers to be on the dry side. Water sparingly, allowing the soil to completely dry out between waterings. Overwatering is a sure way to harm it, so when in doubt, it’s better to wait a bit longer before watering again.

Astrophytum Myriostigma enjoys typical indoor temperatures, ideally between 18°C and 24°C. Avoid placing your cactus near drafty windows or heat sources that can cause fluctuations in temperature.
