Description
Ferocactus histrix, also known as Electrode or Candy Barrel Cactus, is a striking, round cactus with prominent ribs and golden-yellow thorns. It is popular for its bold appearance and resilience, making it a great choice for succulent collections and xeriscapes.
Care Tips:

– Water: Water sparingly. Allow soil to dry out completely between waterings. Reduce watering in winter.
– Soil: Use well-draining cactus or succulent soil mix.
– Temperature: Thrives in warm conditions; protect from frost and cold drafts.
– Fertilizer: Feed with a diluted cactus fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer).
