Golden Barrel Cactus (Echinocactus grusonii) - 300mm
Size: 300mm pots multi-planted, between 10-15 plants per pot.
All our cacti are shipped bare rooted (without pot & dirt).
Echinocactus grusonii, commonly known as Golden Barrel cactus, is one of the most iconic cacti in the world. Whilst it is popular as a striking landscaping plant, it is almost extinct in its native habitat - the dry and rocky deserts of central Mexico.
Golden Barrels can be grown in pots or in the ground. They prefer a full or mostly-full sun position and do not tolerate large volumes of water. If grown outside in a region with lots of rainfall ensure the soil or potting mix is rocky and very fast draining.
These cacti are slow growing, reaching a maximum diameter of roughly 1 metre at full maturity which takes 40-50 years from seed.
