Hi guys n gals. Planta saying Texas Nipple, but I’m not so sure. Here it is next to what I thought was a TN or a Thimble cactus which has taller base, not built like a beach ball or barrel. I also thought the thimble has white/cream flowers and TN red is that correct? Any ideas please? Thank you.
Idk if this is right but it looks like this
It does indeed, do you know its common name and has yours flowered?

echinopsis are called easter lily cactuses most commonly, yours looks like the hybrid "schick". apparently a rare cultivar, couldn't find a good info source but from what i see their blooms can be red or pale pinks

The planta app is really bad at identifying cacti. I have submitted multiple to be added to their database.
1 mi piace Yes, but I don’t blame it lol. There are so many different types and hybrids etc, it generally gets it right or close most of the time. It’s good that it gives you some options.
