Re: November Photo Competition-Astrophytum
Probably unique, one of several different cactocushions made specially for Gordon by a Japanese lady (if I remember correctly). I do like real Astros too, sadly I lost this plant some years ago, but its memory lives on.McFarland wrote:The rare Astrophytum Beanbagianus by the look of things?

I took very few photos, I was in relational rather than photographic mode that day.Angie wrote:I think everybody who has ever been to Gordon Rowley will have photos of his cacti cushions

Re: November Photo Competition-Astrophytum
Here's my entry, Astrophytum myriostigma potosinum. Bought as a tiny plant six years ago and now one I'm really proud of.

Lindsey's pic was my favorite so far, but black background certainly makes a difference...
