The stems of
Ferocactus wislizeni commonly lean southward, hence the vernacular name, compass barrel. Eventually they fall to the ground from their own weight, uprooting themselves.
Introgressive hybridization with Ferocactus cylindraceus is thus far not documented, but is often invoked as an explanation for difficulty in identifying individual specimens in or near the wide region of sympatry. The putative hybrids mostly vanish with sufficient expertise in identifying the "parental" species.
Ferocactus wislizeni barely extends into Mexico, where two allopatric species, F. tiburonensis (G. E. Lindsay) Backeberg and F. herrerae J. G. Ortega, often are cited as varieties of F. wislizeni. All reports of intermediates with F. herrerae are based on normal F. herrerae, the subtropical species (R. S. Felger 2000).
The finely reticulate seed coat of Ferocactus wislizeni is diagnostic among the species of Ferocactus in the flora.

Stems usually leaning southward in adulthood, depressed-spheric to ovoid-cylindric, 19-100(-300) × (20-)36-65(-100) cm. Ribs 20-30(-40), shallowly notched immediately above each areole. Spines 16-25(-29) per areole, central spines and larger radial spines dull pink, gray, or tan; smallest spines per areole white, slender, often bristlelike, less than 1 mm diam., strongly contrasting with central spines; central spines (1-)2-4, often with several, subulate subcentral spines, rigid; principal central spine strongly hooked (very rarely straight), 36-120(-150) mm from curve of hook to base of spine, 1.5-4(-7) mm wide, strongly annulate, terete, ± angular, or flattened and often adaxially troughlike; other central spines subulate, slightly smaller. Flowers similar in color inside and out, 4-8.5 × 4-6.5 cm; inner tepals orange, red, or yellow with orange to red midstripes, or wholly yellow; stigma lobes yellow, orange, or red. Fruits ± readily dehiscent through basal pore, bright yellow, 35-60 × 18-40 mm, thick walled, leathery or fleshy, locule dry, hollow except for seeds. Seeds (1.9-)2-2.5(-2.9) mm, essentially smooth with very narrow and slightly raised reticulations. 2n = 22.

stem succulentCandybarrel cactus is a native stem succulent that is barrel-shaped or sometimes columnar with rarely more than one stem. It ranges from 2 to 10 feet (3 m) tall, with a diameter of 18 to 33 inches (45-83 cm). Candybarrel cactus has 20 to 28 ribs. The spines are dense, somewhat obscuring the surface of the stem. There are four central spines per areole, the larger ones 1.5 to 2 inches (3.8-5.0 cm) long, and 12 to 20 radial spines to 1.8 inches (4.5 cm) in length. Flowers form on growth of the current season near the stem apex. The fruit is yellow, barrel-shaped, and fleshy at maturity [
1,
17,
36]. According to Cannon [
7], the root system of candybarrel cactus is shallow and confined to the upper soil layers. At one site a main anchoring root extended down to about 8 inches (20 cm) and had several short laterals. Horizontal roots originated from the root crown and were very shallow. Depth of burial decreased with distance from the plant and ranged from 0.6 to 1.2 inches (1.5-3.0 cm). Roots were often exposed after rain storms.

More info for the terms:
cacti,

meristem,
seedLarge succulents such as candybarrel cactus have a thick cortex that insulates the vascular tissue. The cortex thickens with age, so older individuals may be more resistant to fire than younger ones. Taller individuals are more likely to survive fire because the apical meristem may be above flame height. Cacti escape fire in refugia and in areas with fuels too sparse to carry fire. Cacti do not appear to store seed in soil seedbanks [
30]. Although desert vegetation rarely burns completely due to a lack of continuous fuels, unusually heavy winter rains may produce a cover of annual species dense enough to carry a fire when cured. Fires resulting from this situation tend to occur at the desert-desert grassland ecotone [
16], a common habitat of candybarrel cactus. Thomas [
30] has cited references suggesting that fire intervals in desert grasslands may be as short as 3 to 40 years. Repeated fires may be disastrous to barrel cactus populations, whose recovery period has been estimated at more than 15 years [
37]. Most desert habitat does not produce enough vegetation to support frequent fires. If frequent fires do occur they gradually reduce succulent populations, although a small percentage of individuals may survive in refugia [
30].

Ferocactus wislizeni ist eine Pflanzenart aus der Gattung Ferocactus in der Familie der Kakteengewächse (Cactaceae). Das Artepitheton wislizeni ehrt Friedrich Adolph Wislizenus.[1]
Beschreibung
Ferocactus wislizeni wächst meist einzeln mit kugel- bis säulenförmigen Trieben und erreicht bei Durchmessern von 80 Zentimetern Wuchshöhen von bis zu 3 Meter. Es sind 20 bis 30 kaum gehöckerte Rippen vorhanden. Die darauf befindlichen Areolen stehen bei jungen Pflanzen weit voneinander entfernt und fließen später fast zusammen. Die daraus entspringenden unterschiedlichen Dornen sind weiß bis rot oder grau. Die vier Mitteldornen stehen über Kreuz, sind quer gebändert und 8 bis 10 Zentimeter lang. Die untersten von ihnen sind am kräftigsten, abgeflacht und häufig hakenförmig gebogen. Die Gestalt der etwa zwölf, 4 bis 5 Zentimeter langen Randdornen variiert von nadelig bis borstenartig.
Die trichterförmigen, gelben bis gelblich orangen bis roten Blüten erreichen eine Länge von 4 bis 5 Zentimeter und weisen ebensolche Durchmesser auf. Die bis zu 5 Zentimeter langen, eiförmigen Früchte sind zur Reifezeit gelb.
Verbreitung, Systematik und Gefährdung
Ferocactus wislizeni ist in den Vereinigten Staaten in den Bundesstaaten Arizona, New Mexico und Texas sowie in den mexikanischen Bundesstaaten Sonora, Sinaloa und Chihuahua verbreitet.
Die Erstbeschreibung als Echinocactus wislizeni erfolgte 1848 durch George Engelmann.[2] Nathaniel Lord Britton und Joseph Nelson Rose stellten die Art 1922 in die Gattung Ferocactus.[3]
In der Roten Liste gefährdeter Arten der IUCN wird die Art als „Vulnerable (VU)“, d. h. als gefährdet geführt.[4]

Ferocactus wislizeni, the fishhook barrel cactus, also called Arizona barrel cactus, candy barrel cactus, and Southwestern barrel cactus, is a species of flowering plant in the cactus family Cactaceae, native to northern Mexico and the southern United States. It is a ball-shaped cactus eventually growing to a cylindrical shape, with spiny ribs and red or yellow flowers in summer.
Some sources mistakenly spell the epithet "wislizenii." The correct spelling is with one "i," per ICN article 60C.2.[2]
Characteristics
The fishhook barrel cactus typically grows to a diameter of roughly 2.25 ft (0.69 m) and a height of 3–6 ft (0.91–1.83 m). However, specimens as wide as 3 ft (0.91 m) and tall as 10 ft (3.0 m) have been recorded.[3] The common name comes from the spines, which are thick and hooked. It has a leathery asparagus green cortex (skin) with approximately 15-28 ribs per cactus. Its flowers are yellow to red-orange and appear atop the cactus fruit during the summer months. The fruits are green when unripe, yellow after the flower dries up, and persist atop the cactus long after the flower is gone, sometimes for more than a year.
In adulthood, fishhook barrel cacti generally lean southward, toward the sun, earning them the nickname "compass barrel cactus." One theory about why this happens is, the afternoon sun is so intense it slows the growth on the exposed side, causing the plant to grow unevenly. Older barrels can lean so far they uproot themselves and fall over, especially after heavy rains when the soil is loose.[4] Its life cycle is 50–100 years.
Like Sclerocactus, Ferocactus typically grows in areas where water flows irregularly or depressions where water can accumulate for short periods of time. They are not associated with washes and arroyos but rather grow along rocky ridges and open bajadas.
The "fishhook" spines and the armored web of spines enclosing the cactus body are a defense against herbivory. Rarely a mature barrel cactus is found hollowed out by javelina but overall prickly pear experience much higher levels of damage from more species. Barrel cactus spines pose an extreme hazard for handling, penetrating boots and gloves. The roots are quite long but very shallow.
Distribution
The fishhook barrel cactus is native to southwestern United States and northwestern Mexico. More specifically, it can be found in southern Arizona, southern New Mexico, El Paso County, Texas and northern Sonora and Chihuahua, Mexico.[5] It grows in gravelly or sandy soil, more commonly on bajadas than steep slopes, at 1000 to 5300 feet (300–1600 m) elevation. It prefers full sun, and does well in hot arid climates. It is, however, frost-tolerant to 5 °F (-15 °C)[6]
Ecology
The flowers are pollinated by cactus bees (Lithurge spp.). Mule deer, birds, and javelina eat the fruit. The birds especially like the seeds. The people of the Sonoran Desert use the fruit for candy and jelly.[5] The Seri and O'odham eat the flowers and use the fruit, which is sour, as emergency food.[4] Tradition says that the barrel cactus is a source of water for people lost without water in the desert. There are records of the southwestern Native Americans using it for that purpose,[7] but the water contains oxalic acid and is likely to cause diarrhea if ingested on an empty stomach.[8]
The skin thickens with age, making older cacti more fire resistant. Even so, average mortality due to fire is 50 to 67 percent within the first two years following fire.[5]
In urban areas, the Fishhook Barrel is valued as an ornamental plant. It is drought tolerant and good for xeriscaping, and it is also a low-maintenance full-sun plant.

Ferocactus wislizenii, comúnmente conocido como biznaga de agua o cacto de barril, es un tipo de cactus caracterizado por tener forma de barril.
Detalle de la planta en flor.
Descripción
El cuerpo del cactus es de forma globular, con la parte superior deprimida y plana, color verde grisáceo. Su tallo varía de 6 a 12 dm de altura, aunque rara vez llegan a mayor altura, y de 45 cm a 80 cm de diámetro. A lo largo del tallo, se presentan de 20 a 28 costillas longitudinales. Posee aureolas en las protuberancias a lo largo de las costillas. Tiene 4 espinas centrales por aureola, las más grandes de 3,8 cm a 5 cm de longitud, y de 12 a 20 espinas radiales de 4,5 cm de longitud.
Las flores, de aspecto de embudo, son de color rojo o amarillo y se forman en la cima del tallo. Estas llegan a medir 6 cm de longitud. Florece esporádicamente al final de la primavera y abundantemente en el verano.
La fruta es de color amarillo, de 5 cm de diámetro, en forma de barril, y es carnosa al madurar, lo cual ocurre durante el otoño. Este fruto pertenece a la dieta del venado bura (Odocoileus hemionus). Inclusive, el cactus llega a ser consumido por conejos y el ganado si las espinas son removidas por alguna alteración común, como el fuego. Algunos pueblos han usado la pulpa para hacer jalea y dulces. El cactus llega a producir hasta 30 000 semillas por año. En muchas zonas de México el fruto es llamado guamiche, muy utilizado para elaborar dulces tradicionales y agua de guamiche.
Las raíces son poco profundas, confinadas a las capas superiores del suelo. Posee una raíz principal de anclaje que se extiende a una profundidad de 2 cm, mientras tiene otras raíces laterales más cortas. Las raíces son a menudo expuestas después de lluvia.
Ferocactus wislizenii se reproduce por semillas únicamente, que son dispersadas por aves y roedores. La germinación se produce mejor a una temperatura de 20 a 30 °C después de estar expuestas a 8 horas de luz. Las semillas no germinan en la oscuridad. Posee una vida de 50 a 130 años.
Se ha apreciado que las biznagas de agua tienden a inclinarse y apuntar en dirección sudoeste. Según algunas hipótesis, esto podría deberse a que el crecimiento se ve disminuido en aquella parte que queda expuesta al sol por la tarde, y por tanto, al momento de mayor calor, esto es, en dirección suroeste. Por ende, se recomienda que al trasplantar un espécimen se oriente de acuerdo a su posición original.
Hábitat
Se le encuentra en terrenos desérticos y pastizales en suelos con roca, grava o arena, a una altura de 300 a 1600 msnm. Es sensible a heladas, lo cual es un factor limitante a alturas y latitudes mayores. A la biznaga de agua se la colecciona y se la usa para jardinería.
Distribución
Crece en el desierto de Chihuahua y de Sonora.
Taxonomía
Ferocactus wislizenii fue descrita por Nathaniel Lord Britton & Joseph Nelson Rose y publicado en The Cactaceae; descriptions and illustrations of plants of the cactus family 3: 127, en el año 1922.[1]
