Red Foxtail Cactus is native to Bolivia and gets its name from the woolly red hairs that form at the tip of its columns as it matures. Unusual and rare in cultivation but easy to grow. It prefers fertile well drained soil and frost free conditions without excessive winter rainfall.

Also known by the botanical name Espostoa guentheri.
