# hey so i think i positively identified my cactus as Eriosyce…

_Posted by Cat on 2024-04-04_

hey so i think i positively identified my cactus as Eriosyce subgibbosa. I was thinking that or Neporteria subgibbosa, which isn’t on planta. Planta told me it was a nipple plant?? i think because she isn’t as black as she used to be 🥲which brings my question, will more intense light make her go back to being black?
