No, this isn't a duplicate entry...Arizona x Brittlestar is different than Brittlestar x Arizona. Hard to keep it all straight! More delicate, dainty rosette than the reverse cross so far. Narrow, burgundy leaves growing in a beautiful star shaped rosette. Leaves lined with brilliant, white, large spines. Great as a single specimen in a pot. Will offset. Some resemble Brittlestar, some resemble Arizona, some are a little bit of both. All are fantastic!
