Astrophytum myriostigma

The Astrophytum myriostigma are starting to bloom and they've been outdoors for over a month now. These cacti will take very low temps. and can be set outdoors in the sun even when there is still a risk for frost. They were starting flower buds a when they went outdoors and I was afraid that the cold nights would make them abort these buds. They held on to the flower buds and are now starting to bloom
