This isn't a cactus. It's a succulent Euphorbia :o)

This one is like a sea urchin - in tartan! Lovely.

Yes! So it is! Is it quite big, Hywel?

Thank you both :o)

It's rather small at the moment - about
3 cms across. I only bought it last year.

Me too! does it flower Hywel, they look like buds on top?

Thanks, Mel. I was thinking it reminded me of something! Rather nice, Hywel.

Neena those are little buds on the top. They just open into tiny green flowers - very small and hardly noticeable at all.

Thank you all :o)
