It's always so interesting to see those asterias develop flowering areoles between the ribs.

G'morning MrXeric,
It's always so interesting to see those asterias develop flowering areoles between the ribs.
Several old asterias which are more than 15 years old show same flowering locations in my place.

The attached photo is a 17 years old super kabuto.
The body is a starfish shape and so rib-bottoms are pushed up more than rib-tops.
Flowerig buds come out from rib-bottom.

Two ariocarpus fissuratus f Big Bend were in flower yesterday afternoon. I bought seeds and sowed in 2003.
It is late summer in here and still hot days have continued. It seems they know daylight time has been shoter.
