Fishhook Barrel Cactus 'flavispinus'

Avoid watering the cactus’ body i.e. on the flesh with exposure to sunlight as this can cause sunburning which can lead to scaring, fungal infections or even death.¹

Keep dry at 10 degrees C. in winter, but can tolerate light frost.²

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that flavispinus is thought of as half hardy, so remember to watch your frost dates and ensure you have this plant protected when the temperature dips.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as flavispinus is a half hardy plant.
