Ferocactus latispinus DICHOTOMIC-MONSTRUOSUS APEX is a unique variety featuring a distinctive dichotomic, or branched, apex with a monstrous growth pattern. This cactus typically has a globular to slightly flattened shape, with well-defined ribs adorned with wide, flat, and recurved spines that are typically red or reddish-brown. The plant produces large, funnel-shaped flowers in shades of yellow, red, or pink during the autumn.
