I currently live in Michigan (U.S.), moved here about three years ago from Belgium, where I left the cactus collection I had started as a teenager. I had a good variety of common cacti I found in stores/was gifted.
I recently started getting back into cacti (with thanks to my husband) and have a newfound interest in succulents.
He gifted me a Golden Barrel last year and I have been known to take it's offspring and give them to anyone who even mentions plants in general. He also recently bought me a Moon Cactus because he didn't know what it was but it "looked pretty"
and last week he bought me what appears to be a kind of Mammillaria, which is when I realized I had no idea they could grow tall and aren't just groundknobs. My technical lingo is also obviously off the charts. I was also given a variety seed mix, I assume it's going to be quite common species as well IF they germinate.
I honestly am not currently more interested in one type over another, and I am here mostly to learn and discover. I should be treated as a newbie to cacti as I have been out of it for quite some time.
