Fairy castle cactus Acanthocereus Tetragonus

Looks like Cereus peruvianus is also known as C. repandus which is in Planta’s database. Sometimes plants are taxonomically renamed and word doesn’t make it to the growers.

Of course!

I agree this not the fairy castle cactus, it’s the Peruvian apple cactus (cereus repandus).
