Red-Headed Irishman (Mammillaria spinosissima) - Description
Mammillaria spinosissima, nicknamed the red-headed Irishman, is a type of cactus that grows in Guerrero, endemic to Mexico. It is very easy to grow, and produces seeds on its own by being self fertile. Because of this the "red headed Irishman" is commonly cultivated around the world, often found in plant nurseries and private collections.
