Echinocactus Horizonthalonius and Ferocactus Gracilis. I love how those spines come alive after some rain!

Which Gymnocalycium is this?

Google is saying castellanosii. The pot was not labeled and sales people at the nursery were not quite sure. This is the first Gymno I’ve bought and was pretty excited about it.

Saw this guy on my evening walk. I’m pretty sure a Ferocactus Wislizeni which is the most common that grow here in the Tucson desert. Must be around 6ft tall (long now).

A. Ferox or Marlothii?

I purchased this from a local nursery that has a large variety of cactus and succulents. The sales people seem to be confused whether this was a Ferox or a Marlothii
I’m worried it could not be either since they seemed not sure themselves. Could this be something different?

Euphorbia tirucalli keeps growing

When I bought a couple of Euphorbia tirucalli (pencil tree) for my front entrance, I was not aware they grew so tall. The tag in the pot was missing the “pencil tree” part 😂
Anybody else have these growing like wild? The one on left is at least 15 ft tall.
