From the Editor. In the Cactus and Succulent Journal, U.S. (Vol. 71, 1999, No .4, p. 191-200) there was published the article by Miles Anderson "Ariocarpus Cultivars: An Overview of Cristates, Hybrids, Monstrose Forms and Other Oddities". We were really stunned by these rare exotic plants. The article has been translated into Russian for the Russian speaking readers, the original English version of the article you may find at Living Rocks of Mexico site. Here we only reprint the photos of these wonderful Ariocarpus "oddities".
