Native to the Western Cape Province of South Africa, where it grows in rocky semi-arid areas, often partially hidden among stones and low vegetation.

Ortegocactus macdougallii is a rare and unique species of cactus native to a small region in Oaxaca, Mexico. It is a small, globular cactus that usually grows as a solitary plant but can form small clusters over time. The body is dark green to gray-green with distinctive black spines and a slightly woolly crown. One of its most striking features is the chalky, bluish-grey coating on the skin, which helps protect it from intense sunlight. It produces bright yellow flowers in spring or early summer. Due to its limited natural habitat, it is considered a vulnerable species and is prized by cactus collectors.
