Product Description

Ferocactus gracilis seeds, freshly harvested. The Ferocactus gracilis is a striking barrel cactus native to the arid regions of northwestern Mexico. Known for its tall, cylindrical body and impressive red to reddish-brown spines, this cactus adds both color and structure to any collection. Its ribs are pronounced and regular, creating a sculptural form that looks equally dramatic in pots or rocky landscapes.

One of the most attractive features of Ferocactus gracilis is its long, curved central spines, which can glow deep red under sunlight, making the plant appear almost fiery. In summer, mature plants reward growers with bright yellow flowers, forming a vivid contrast with the spines. Grown from seed, each plant develops slowly but steadily, becoming a long-lived specimen that reflects both resilience and beauty.

  • Strong red spines create a bold architectural effect.

  • Barrel-shaped growth with defined vertical ribs.

  • Flowers in bright yellow with seasonal display.

  • Perfect centerpiece for desert gardens and containers.

  • Hardy and rewarding when grown from seed.

Finally, the Ferocactus gracilis is an extraordinary cactus that combines strength, elegance, and color. Its commanding presence makes it a must-have for cactus enthusiasts seeking a robust and showy species.
