Description
The beautiful flowers on this native cactus range in color from red to orange (the most common) to yellow. I found two Candy Barrel Cacti with different colored flowers all growing within a few feet of each other in the desert, this one happens to be red....Gorgeous Colors....
The plant leans toward the sun and thus turns south. It has the name Compass Plant because of that tendancy. Several desert plants have the same tendency.
Cactus thorns are modified leaves. Their shape conserves water and adds protection to the cactus plant.
