| HI number two is a euphorbia which is not a cactus, not sure of type, but beware of the white sap it exudes if damaged can be very nasty indeed | |

| Well I think they all need a little extra coddling, they were a bit sad looking. I'll post a pic if I can get any flowers from the lobivia, they might be feeling happier soon | |

| I thought the first one looked more like a pachycereus based on the fluff on the edge of the ribs. | |

| Aha, thanks for that CactusPoleCat! My girlfriend has a couple of very small specimens of Lobivia ancistrophora ssp. arachnacantha in community pots. I had thought they were Parodia werneri (Notocactus uebelmannianus), judging by their appearance compared to a more mature plant of the latter species, but when looking at your photo, there's no doubt it's the former. Explains why one of them has offsets already. | |
