Echinocactus grusonii, commonly known as Golden Barrel Cactus or Mother in Law's Cushion, are one of the most spectacular Cactus in cultivation today. Golden Barrel Cactus have green ribbed stems with sharp golden spines and eventually produce small yellow flowers in Summer. They can reach up to around 1 metre tall and 1 metre in diameter; however they are very slow growing and can take decades to reach their full height. Echinocactus thrive in a full sun position and are very drought tolerant, making them a popular choice for xeriscaping.
