Hi 👋🏼

I think it’s the Tom thumb cactus

#### Shamana replied on 2023-12-30

It does look like that thanks

The Easter lily cactus (Echinopsis oxygona) is a popular succulent cactus that is native to South Brazil, Uruguay, and northern Argentina.

Yes that what I thought at first but now I’m torn between Easter lily or Tom Thumb.

### DanishGramma commented on 2023-12-30

I’m thinking it’s a Lobivia

#### Shamana replied on 2023-12-30

Thanks so much you were right it is a Lobivia

Thank you I’ve had mine named wrong since I got her 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ I used the app to find out what it was and it said Tom Thumb 🤦🏻‍♀️ Am going to change it now. Thank you again

### DanishGramma commented on 2023-12-30

I tried Google lens and it was showing me Lobivia and Echinocereus. I hope this helps a bit. I know it’s hard to find good pictures but I wish you luck
