Description: The Ferocactus emoryi, also known as the Coville Barrel Cactus, is a fascinating desert cactus and a member of the Ferocactus genus. Native to the southwestern United States and northern Mexico (Baja California Sur), it is also known as Ferocactus covillei, Traveler's friend, and Emory's barrel cactus. Mature plants are typically less than six feet tall and more cylindrical than barrel-shaped. The Ferocactus emoryi is covered in sharp central spines that help protect it from predators and harsh environmental conditions. The solitary barrel cactus of the Ferocactus emoryi is well-adapted to survive in arid environments. It has the ability to store water in its thick, fleshy stem, allowing it to withstand long periods of drought. In terms of care, it's important to avoid overwatering, as the wet cactus can lead to root rot. The ribbed texture of the stem helps it expand and contract as it absorbs and retains water.
