They ask us to ID their plants...

Q: Aloha,

Could you help me out in possibly identifying these cacti? I would greatly appreciate it. I have an idea that the one is a Cleistocactus. I cannot find anything online even closely resembling the other. Thanks.
Dave



A: Dave,

The white plant is not a cactus but an Euphorbia lactea "Ghost". It is a cool succulent plant native to India and Sri Lanka. The Cleistocactus looks like it might be Cleistocactus vulpis-cauda.

Take care,
Hap
