Hiya,

Pre-lock down I picked up this beautiful cacti, and am struggling to identify the species. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

It's a oreocereus, can't remember the species, maybe trolli, not sure .

Owww thank you! A google search for Oreocereus trolli brings up cacti that look the same

I love that it's called the old man of the andes too! Very fitting! Thank you again

I think trollii or celsianus - my first guess would be celsianus

O. (neo)celsianus undoubtly. I'd pant each in own pot.

Ow, great! Thank you. I will, I hadn't considered separating them! Good tip
