Ferocactus latispinus

It is a globular, bluish-green cactus with well-defined ribs, on which white, large, downy areoles can be seen. Its radial spines are needle-like, translucent, robust, of a whitish color; while the central ones are flat, bright red, hooked, similar to a tongue, for this reason it received the nickname of "Devil’s tongue cactus". Its multi-layered bell-shaped flowers are serrated at the edges, of an intense pink-magenta color, which bloom on the apical part of the plant.
