Columnar Cactus Seedling ID

Post by Hokie_Cactus »

Hello,

I planted this cactus a little over a year ago from a package of 100 mixed seeds. So, unfortunately I cannot figure out the genus and species and I want to see if anyone here can ID it for me? The picture below shows the cactus with a ruler, and the cactus has been growing about an inch a month during the summer if that provides a clue.

Looks like Cereus,but still juvenile that's why have to wait some years more. Nice plant anyway, don't collect labels, collect plants! 🙂

Ahhhh, that's the conclusion I was leaning towards as well! I guess I will just have to display a little patience, haha.
