‘Snowy Peter’ is an Astrophytum hybrid derived from A. myriostigma and A. ornatum. Its defining feature is the symmetrical proliferation of lateral shoots from the areoles—a trait not found in either parent. This unusual growth habit results in a highly sculptural form. Over time, it produces many heads that crowd together into a compact, intricate clump. With its architectural beauty and rare symmetry, it becomes a natural centerpiece, commanding attention in any display of choice succulents.

Snowy Peter is a registered cultivar. Original publication:
