Native to the Caribbean and South America, Melocactus species develop compact, globe-like forms with prominent ribs and spines. The cephalium, which forms as the cactus matures, is a defining feature of this genus. Melocactus seeds thrive in full sun, well-draining soil, and require warmth, making them ideal for collectors and tropical or indoor cactus gardens.
