Wow🤗

These fell off while transplanting the monster so in some soil they go. Another 1st for me so please don't try this at home 😂🤔🌵 #cacti #eastercactus #easterlily #propagation #cactus-propagation

A very enjoyable but very painful few hours spent re-planting and raising the monster 😈 even plucked all the debris from the spines 😍😎 #eastercactus #cactus

I purchased this cactus for 50p in 1993 and it was tiny. Any ideas on what type it is and how to allow this monster to keep growing? A couple of times a year bright purple flowers bloom but not for long. Thank you in advance 😁 🌵 (photo does not do it justice)

Not into CACTI Jo but @Soph1e may be able to help 😊

This is where it all started for me, my childhood friend 😊 Thank you @flof1952 I would love to know more about it.

I can keep them alive but I'm not that great at identifying them. It looks like you've done a great job keeping it alive given how long you've had it! Let's try #plantID #PlantIDcactus and see if someone can help.

I can't take all the credit, it's an absolute survivor 💪 Thank you for your help @Soph1e 😊

It looks like an echinopsis but not sure which one.

Thank you @wilko 😊

You're very welcome @jsr. Following the suggestion from @wilko I've had a quick look on Google and I'm wondering if it could be an echinopsis multiplex. http://www.cactus-art.biz/schede/ECHINOPSIS/Echinopsis_oxigona_mutiplex/Echinopsis_oxigona/echinopsis_oxygona_multiplex.htm

Just checked the link out @Soph1e when it flowers it is exactly the same so I think we've pinned it down. Awesome stuff, Thanks guys 😊 #eastercactus #easterlily
