The Echinocactus grusonii v. albispinus looks just like a regular golden barrel but the spines are all glassy-white instead of yellow.This is a very nice plant.
Named for the State of Texas where it is widely distributed. it is a round-shaped barrel with numerous flat ribs that grows very low to the ground with short but very thick pink or grey spines that can live for decades.
Blue-grey stem featuring prominent wide areoles and woolly apex. Spines transition from cream to purple, gaining strength and vibrancy over time. A showstopping botanical wonder!
Echinocactus ingens is easily recognized by it's large size, being the largest of all barrel cacti. It is usually solitary and may grow up to 2,5 m tall and 1,5 m wide. In habitat it could live more than a hundred years.
Glaucous stem with large, circular, wool-covered areoles. Subulate radial spines arranged radially, pale with deep purple tips; as they mature, they grow stronger and more colorful. A stunning botanical wonder!
