Golden Barrel Cactus is a striking, spherical cactus species prized for its bold form and bright golden-yellow spines. Native to Mexico, this slow-growing cactus develops a rounded, ribbed body densely covered with strong radial spines, giving it a dramatic architectural look that makes it a favorite for rock gardens, desert landscapes, and container displays.

This cactus can grow up to 1 meter tall and about 60 cm wide over many years. It thrives in bright, sunny conditions and is extremely drought tolerant, making it an excellent choice for low-maintenance gardens and indoor spaces with good light. Its toughness and resistance to most pests and diseases make it especially suitable for beginners.
