Echinocactus grusonii, more commonly known as the golden barrel cactus, is a popular ornamental plant due both to its hardy nature and exotic appearance. It’s spherical shape and coating of golden spines make it look somewhat like a pincushion, earning the cactus the amusing nickname of “mother-in-law’s cushion.”
Golden barrel cacti have been a popular addition to gardens across Europe and North America since the late 1800s. The widespread demand for the cactus resulted in it being dug up by the thousands, and nowadays, the golden barrel cactus is rarely found in the wild. The Rio Moctezuma Valley in Mexico is the site of an intensive conservation effort to reestablish the region’s native golden barrel cactus population, but wild plants are not found in many other areas.
All seeds are fresh of this season and obtained from my personal collection.
NOTE: cactus seeds could be sown in any season under control environment, however if you wanna go with nature then best time to sow the seeds is early spring/summer )
