Type of cactus? Got this at a yard sale and person didn’t know what it was, just that it was “ugly.”

    [Here’s a picture of a small piece that I repotted which shows it more close up.](https://i.imgur.com/FyAOENH.jpeg) I’ve never seen any flowers or anything like that on it in the few years I’ve had it. It seems to love living outside in the full sun/rain in Massachusett during spring, summer, and fall. One small piece I repotted actually fell on the ground in its little pot in the fall and I didn’t see it until the spring after it had been on the ground, buried under snow during the winter. It seemed fine going through all of that too.

    *Austrocylindropuntia subulata* i believe.

    I only came here to say how beautiful I think this is!

  4. I had one that I had to leave behind during a move. I loved it so much. Thank you for posting your stunning plant! I need to get myself a new one.

    Oh nice! I have the same one but mine is really small, I got it from ikea a while ago. It’s really cool to see how big it can grow.

    I think it’s cute and really interesting to look at.

    I have two of these types growing in my house. I grabbed the seeds off a large cactus plant in the south of Portugal. No idea what it is called either.

    That plant is only ugly on the inside (believe me, if you could read plant minds you’d kick that creep STRAIGHT to the curb.)
