Hi Everyone :smile:

Saw this on the wrong shelf at the garden centre so just had to buy it :grin:

I think it might be an Oreocereus celsianus?

Anyone else got any ideas?

Would fit the "plant identification thread" quite well.

Most of the plant identification requests on the Forum are for Dutch plants bought from garden centres and DIY stores etc. There's probably no more than about 50 different plants grown in large quantities in Holland. Somewhere, back in the distant past, there was a useful link on the Forum to a website that showed all the mass-produced Dutch plants along with their names. It wasn't on one of the large commercial nursery websites where they often show plants with incorrect names, but something that someone had put online to help identify mass-produced nursery plants. It's on the Forum somewhere but I'm not sure where to find it.

There was a similar one on Facebook recently which had no roots. So check for the usual bugs.

Yes, first thing I looked for was an identification section. Looked again, still can't see where it's hidden.
