Hello,

My mother in law just bought me a little cactus that is adorable now most cactus are easy. Little water and sun but i'd like to know who he is before I name him.

Pictures are attached

The white fluff is also worrying me... I don't know if this is normal.

I appreciate the feedback abut the white fluff. Do you know what type of cactus this is ? (btw the two pics are of the same cactus)

Are Eric and Bill suggestion of names ?

Hiya Tetters ; you OK ?
Perhaps the BCSS should abandon all latin names and just call all cacti either Eric or Bill , and for the female gender Sheila or Dot ?
Was going to add a humorous smiley but can only seem to get the 'thumbs-up' one .
