Not eve’s needles @sarahssassysucculents just behind this cactus is a big eve’s needles and this one is much older than the eve’s needles. It’s a fraction of the size of eve’s needles

I was thinking maybe because of the type of spine/succulenty soikes/spines that are coming off the lower plants. they look like my eves needle

They do kind of have the same look as eve’s needles just much smaller in size. I’ve been trying to label this one for almost a year. This one is only 8 inches tall and very skinny

I think it could be etiolating snd that could be the skinny stretching. But check out Christmas tree cactus. It’s a miniature version of the Eves needle... might be a solution ? Not sure but it looks closeish to me
