I just received this as a plant to go in a small pot I bought. I know very little about cacti, but am trying to increase my knowledge, as I find them fascinating. This is only the second cactus I have purchased. The other is a “hairy old man”😊 I’d really appreciate an ID and anything else you’d like to add specific to care. Thanks. Beth

Planta identifies this plant as a Zebra Haw.. “Enon”, while online it is identified as a miniature Aloe Plant. Thoughts? Also, is it time to repot? Not sure how long the roots are but I had to transplant to this pot due to very short roots and plant was becoming dehydrated. It is now healthy - leaves (?) have plumped up. Plant is 6” high from top of pot and 6” width. Pot is 4”. Still growing!

Double checking bc I was given this has a free earth day from the office. Did I identify it correctly?

Orchid cactus getting ready to bloom! I’ve had this plant for a number of years and this is the first time it has ever came close to blooming. Will post more when she opens up!

Thinking about breaking down and potting chunks separately… worried about killing it but I feel like it needs more space to grow! Any any advice would be much appreciated!

Postmortem plant question here: had this little pincushion cactus for several years before recently it shriveled up into a tiny ball of spikes. After about a month I finally accepted that it had died, and decided to clear out the pot. When I went to uproot it, the spike ball popped off and I got a good look at the inside. It look like it had been hollowed out and filled with sand? The substance was a little clumpy, and kind of reminded me of an anthill— I wish I got a photo. Not sure if that’s normal, or if I accidentally subjected my cactus son to some unknown horrors. Anyone know what that was?

Can anyone help me ID this cactus? It’s coming up as Gold Lace Cactus but I don’t think this grows into “fingers” like that type, rather the clusters of round bulbs is how it grows. I could be wrong but I was certain its name was something I didn’t already have (and I do have a ladyfingers cactus).

These were knocked off the mother plant—now that they are established there are roots growing off the sides. I know this is normal, but do I need to do anything with it-or just treat the plant as normal?

What is happening to my cactus? And what should I do?

So my Shrek ears are in a 4-inch pot they are 7 in tall and I think about 8 in wide and it feels like I should transplant it to a bigger pot I can't tell because of the kind of pot it's in if the roots are coming out the bottom or not and it seems super happy so I don't want to upset it either so any thoughts? 🤷‍♀️🙏🪴💛 I have a million plant questions today

Fiancé and I are loving this app. We used the diagnosed feature and discovered we overwatered the poor thing but it’s still pretty. It’s hanging on lol

I saw the plant in the white pot last month at a local nursery. The price was $129, and I passed because that is $100 more than I've paid for any plant; part of the fun of plants for me is the challenge of waiting and seeking. I picked this new one up last night after a day of debating because it's so much plant. To manage, I'm going to split it across 2-4 pots. Wishlist item complete for $29. Yeah, Home Depot.

I bought this cactus today, it's labeled as Torch cactus, trichocereus grandiflorus. Planta didn't have that species in the database. Made me wonder if the big box nursery mislabeled it? What do you all think?
