Cleistocactus strausii
Silver Torch cactus can thrive in low-nitrogen soil without facing the consequences of low nitrogen. Too much water will make the plant weak and lead to root rot. 
Least Concern. This cactus is locally abundant in its native land and has few local threats to its survival.
This cactus can be propagated by cuttings or seed.
Astrophytum asterias
Sand Dollar Cactus has been grown as a houseplant since the 1840s, like other members of its genus and despite its rarity in the wild. It is readily propagated from seed, so most plants encountered in nurseries are seed grown. The popularity of this species among collectors and enthusiasts has ensured that a number of cultivars are available. One such cultivar is the 'Super Kabuto', a clonally propagated variety whose large trichomes congregate into dense spots, arranged in a striking pattern.
