These have been rescued from a pot choked in weeds. I know number two is a Euphorbia but I am not sure what sort, it either has a really long root or has been planted too deeply. The last one has me baffled

(clickable thumbnails)

I think first is Echinopsis haku-jo

Hi Ashraf

That would be nice, I've been eyeing one off at the nursery...

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

3rd looks like a lobivia and a nice size too. need to get a flower of it and post
Agree 1st is 100% Haku-jo but lost it's furry edges It could revive into a nice looking cactus in time though.

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

G'day,
#1 is Echinopsis cv "Haku Jo"


#2 is Euphorbia cv "Green Elf"


#3 is Echinopsis (Lobivia) ancistrophora ssp. arachnacantha.
Flower colour varies, ...white through to red.



Nice plants!

CP

Thanks CP Always good when I buy ones I don't already have, hope they revive 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.

He's quite bald Kanje, poor thing
