Lemon Barrel Cactus (Echinocactus grusonii)

The Lemon Barrel Cactus is a striking, globe-shaped succulent with ribbed, bright green bodies covered in golden-yellow spines, resembling a glowing lemon. Native to arid regions, this slow-growing cactus is both ornamental and low-maintenance, making it ideal for indoor and outdoor succulent gardens. Over time, it can grow into a larger barrel shape, becoming a centerpiece in any cactus collection. During its blooming season, it may produce small, yellow flowers on its crown, adding to its charm.
 The Lemon Barrel Cactus is a hardy and eye-catching addition to any home or garden, offering a unique desert-inspired aesthetic with minimal care requirements.
