Echinocactus horizonthalonius

VZD 494 San Felipe, ZAC, Mexico

Dense, rounded, ribbed spines with interesting coloration, creamy yellow, orange, redish-brown to dark cherry red.

E. horizonthalonius seeds intrinsically have low germination rates and therefore some treatment is required to increase it. Apart from presoaking in water for 24 hrs (which may help and does no harm), we cannot recommend any of the specific treatments cited in the literature, as the results vary widely for different growers. Experimentation is required.
