The Ferocactus glaucescens commonly known as the Blue Barrel Cactus is a low-maintenance cactus perfect for any desert landscape, rock garden, or drought-tolerant planting. With its slow-growing nature and resistance to hard conditions, it is perfect for both beginners and experienced collectors. 

Please Note: Our collection includes bare-root WITHOUT any soil or pot and cuttings. Some of our plants may have minor scars, yet each one is guaranteed to arrive in optimal health and excellent condition. Additionally, any discoloration at the base of the cactus, particularly in rooted variants, is a typical result of previous planting in soil. 

Product Details

Benefits

Drought-Tolerant & Low Maintenance – Thrives in dry climates with minimal care.
Striking Blue-Green Color – Adds unique contrast to your succulent or cactus collection.
Cold-Hardy & Resilient – Withstands cooler temperatures better than many other cacti.
Perfect for Landscaping & Containers – Ideal for rock gardens, xeriscaping, and potted displays.

Cactus Care

After Arrival: Let your Blue Barrel Cactus rest in a shaded, dry area for a few days before planting. Use a well-draining cactus mix, such as a blend of sandy soil, perlite, and pumice, or a pre-made succulent mix. Avoid watering for the first week to help it adjust.

Long-Term Care: Place in full sun to partial shade for the best growth. Water sparingly—only when the soil is completely dry, typically every 2-3 weeks in warm months and even less in winter. Protect from hard frost by bringing it indoors or covering it during freezing temperatures. With minimal care, this stunning cactus will thrive for years!
