Cactus globes are the most prolific bloomers, with neat and beautiful bodies and easy care, making them excellent potted plants.

Introduction

Green potted plants are essential decorations for home life. Keeping some flowers and plants at home has many benefits: it beautifies the room and pleases the mood. "Huasheng Potted Plant Diary, Issue 1270" introduces several of the most prolific blooming cactus globes.

Grass ball cactus

Cactus globes are very popular potted plants in offices, round and chubby and adorable, and many workplace experts even believe they can block radiation, so they are widely cultivated. Most cactus globes kept indoors do not bloom, such as the common golden barrel cactus (Echinocactus grusonii) and yellow old man cactus. The picture above shows a grass ball cactus.

White grass ball cactus

The grass ball cactus has almost become synonymous with cactus globes. In fact, the grass ball cactus is only one variety among many cactus plants, with many flower colors. Common ones include the white grass ball cactus and pink grass ball cactus, named by flower color. They bloom every summer, and many flowers open at once, very spectacular and beautiful.

Dragon king ball cactus

The dragon king ball cactus is an outstanding figure among cactus flowers, with a unique form: the body spirals to the left or right, giving a strong sense of layers. Its flowering period is very long. In the Central Plains region, the natural flowering period is from May to October, roughly one round of flowers per month. Both flowers and fruit are excellent, making it a treasure among cactus globes and highly sought after.

Yuweng cactus

Compared with the dragon king ball cactus, the Yuweng cactus counts as a mass-market "ordinary item" and is fairly common. It is round to oval, covered with hairs on the outside, and under full light the body becomes ever more red and delightful. It blooms in spring, with peach-red, small bell-shaped flowers opening in a ring around the body, like a beautiful halo. It is very easy to care for, and its propagation and cultivation methods are the same as those of the golden barrel cactus and the red-headed Irish rose cactus; it is a plant for potted ornamental viewing.

Zi sun ball cactus

The Zi sun ball cactus is a very popular variety. Its body base very easily produces offsets, often forming large clustered clumps, hence the name Zi sun ball cactus. The flowers are small but numerous, deep red, and it blooms easily into a full pot, with a beautiful plant shape and pretty flower color. It is drought-tolerant and tolerant of partial shade, and very easy to care for.

Feihua Yu cactus

The Feihua Yu cactus is indisputably the cactus globe that blooms the most. From May to October is its flowering period. As long as it gets enough light, it will bloom continuously, and it sends up many buds at once with many flowers opening together. The larger the body, the more flowers it produces. Its flower colors are rich and varied, with high ornamental value. After blooming it also sets seed, with strong self-sowing ability, and it is very easy to grow. It suits a broad range of new and experienced flower lovers. For growing cactus globes, one Feihua Yu cactus is enough.
