Astrophytum myriostigma, also known as the bishop's mitre, is a spherical to cylindrical cactus that stands out due to its unusual, star-shaped form. It usually has five (occasionally four or six) clearly defined ribs, which give it the characteristic appearance of a bishop's mitre. The skin of the cactus is gray-green and covered with small, white dots that give it a velvety texture. This cactus rarely forms thorns, which makes it unique among cacti. In spring or summer, yellow, funnel-shaped flowers may appear, growing out of the center of the plant.
