Scalloped Sepals on a Glaucus Green Barrel


Ferocactus pottsi

These barrels are from Mexico and get around 16″ across, plus a whole lot taller eventually. We’re not really sure what species this is, but we’ve done our best looking through all our sources to identify it as F. pottsi. We waited for the blooms, which are yellow thus ruling out F. diguetii, to be sure.

I like this picture of the buds better than the picture of the yellow blooms I have. Kind of looks Eastern Orthodox.

I may share the bloom photo too; who can tell for sure what I’m thinking.
