Scientifically known as Echinocactus grusonii, is a striking and popular member of the cactus family. Also known as the Golden Barrel Cactus, this plant is renowned for its spherical shape and distinctive ribbed texture. Covered with sharp, golden spines, the cactus ball is an eye-catching addition to any indoor or outdoor garden.

Native to the deserts of Mexico, the cactus ball thrives in arid environments and is well-adapted to hot, sunny conditions. Its robust nature makes it an ideal choice for those new to gardening or those seeking low-maintenance plants. While it grows slowly, it can eventually reach up to three feet in diameter under optimal conditions.

In addition to its unique appearance, the cactus ball can also produce yellow flowers during the summer months, adding a splash of color to its golden spines. This hardy plant requires minimal care and is highly drought-tolerant, making it a perfect choice for busy gardeners or those living in dry climates like the UAE.
