Image 1 Image 2 Image 3

Also known as Ferocactus glaucescens. The Blue Barrel cactus features blue "skin" with yellow spines and stunning yellow flowers. The Blue Barrel cactus will typically cluster with age, but are great solitary and even better when planted in groups. 5 gallon plants average 6" wide and 4" tall.

The Blue Barrel cactus is a popular choice for xeriscaping, rock gardens, container gardens and other low-maintenance landscaping applications.

Our shipping process guarantees your Blue Barrel cactus will come to you in pristine condition and wrapped in a way that makes planting easy!

Barrel design and application suggestions:

Barrel cacti are very low maintenance and offer subtle beauty and interest. Our golden and red barrels offer great low maintenance color options for container gardeners or those looking to spruce up a landscape. A potted arrangement of cacti and succulents can always use a few barrel cacti for interest and contrast. In the landscape in suitable environments, barrel cacti look phenomenal in groupings. Barrel cacti will take relentless all day sun and moderate cold to the low twenties at night.

Why purchase our Barrel Cacti?

Our barrel cacti are grown in their native habitat right here in Southern Arizona. Raised outdoors with just the right amount of water and fertilizer, they come to you in their natural form. These plants do not come to you from a greenhouse. They are already hardy to whatever growing conditions you have to offer. Our barrel cacti present the same appearance as you will find them in their native habitats.

If you want to plant them in a container for a sunroom, patio or window planter, great! If you want to take your agaves and plant them in the ground, also great! No acclimation needed. Our plants are ready to go!

10 out of 5 stars!

I wrote a review earlier today and accidentally clicked on one star. I would have picked 10 if I could and explained why in the review (I am hopeless with technology 😵!)
