Ferocactus townsendianus

After purchasing this beautiful barrel cactus in Tucson at Desert Survivors Native Plant Nursery last year, I remember putting it out on the balcony of our hotel room and watching in delight as broad-billed hummingbirds visited its flame-like flowers.   I'd enjoy setting aside a slow afternoon just to see if my local hummingbirds here in San Diego do the same.
