Golden Barrel cactus is an easily propagated, popular landscape accent plant in temperate climates. These plants are but a few of the several hundreds salvaged and replanted in 1991 from the Zimapan hydroelectric dam site on the Queretaro-Hildago border which destroyed most, if not all of the plant's known habitat rendering it all but extinct in the wild.
