Ferocactus spp.



Ferocactus is a genus of large barrel shaped cactus that mostly have large spines and small flowers. They originated in Southwestern United States and Northwestern Mexico. The young specimens are columnar but as they grow older ribs form, and they take on a barrel form. Most of the species are solitary but some, such as Ferocactus robustus and F. glaucescens, have clustering habits. They are desert dwellers and can cope with some frost and intense heat. The typical habitat is hot and very arid, and the plants have adapted to exploit water movement to concentrate their biomass in areas where water is likely to be present.
