Hello I am from North Central Wisconsin. That does come with its own set of challenges. The main one right now is that we are under almost 30 inches of snow!

I have a slight obsession with barrel type cactus and I would like to acquire a blue barrel cactus.

My boyfriend enjoys prickly pears a lot.

I attached pictures of some of my cactus.

I have twenty.

Welcome to the CactiGuide succulent and cactus forum. I hope, you have enough space to grow barrel cacti like the first one pictured. But then it may take a good number of years for that plant to reach a ten inch diameter size. :)
