February 11th, 2011: Golden Barrel Cactus (Echinocactus grusonii) by cactusmarty
Nice shot!
Great shot! I had a huge Golden Barrel Cactus back in the 70's - 80's that I'd had for many years. One day I noticed it was missing ... stolen right from the front porch! Unfortunately the container it was planted in was more expensive than the plant. :( I'm not so much into growing thorny plants nowadays ... got jabbed & stabbed with thorns too many times, LOL but I sure love seeing the beautiful pictures of them and that is truly a nice shot ... a barrel of golden barrel's!
That is a great shot! I don't grow many spiny things either but love to look at them;o)
