Cactus ID needed

Post by Peter A »

No matter how often I tell my friends not to buy me cacti as presents when they are on holiday, they always do. They are never plants that I would buy myself, and it is impossible not to keep them... Can anyone ID this?

I cannot ID it but I have been given plants with fake flowers by well meaning friends. I did' really like to tell them the flowers were not real! Cereus perhaps?

It may be three plants in the one pot. A common selling ploy these days.
Yea, looks like a young Cereus.
