Description:

The Golden Barrel is an easily propagated, popular landscape accent plant in temperate climates. This is one of several hundred plants salvaged and replanted in 1991 from the Zimapan hydroelectric dam site on the Queretaro-Hildago border which destroyed most, if not all, of the plants known habitat rendering it all but extinct in the wild.
