You may see this cactus also identified as Parodia haselbergii. More experts changing the names on me. The plant is native to Brazil. I protect mine in the winter and do not consider it cold-hardy.

Notocactus haselbergii is a nice specimen to use in dish gardens, as it provides a pleasing ball shape to arrange with other shapes.
