I told myself no more, but I saw this at a grocery store and thought it was incredibly cool. Can someone identify what type of cactus this is ? I need to google how to care for it!

It reminds me of my Dog-Tail Cactus (Deamia testudo) that I found at a local grocery store about 15 years ago ... but that's just a wild guess because I'm not all that familiar with cacti.

Its a Peanut Cactus, Echinopsis chamaecereus, hybrid. There are a bunch of them, but they all have the same care.

I have found that coffee, tea, and rose can all agree on one thing... water everyday.

Thumbs up Thanks so much @hlutzow for correctly identifying the plant as a variety of Peanut Cactus (Chamaecereus silvestrii) because I really wasn't sure! Smiling
