Home Depot gets a lot of their plants from Costa Farms in Miami, Fl. Here's a link to color photos of the cactus they produce, and so would be found in Home Depot. https://costafarms.com/plants/cactus

Wigginsia
Re: Help with Id pls!!!
Yes looks like a Wigginsia, formally Malacocarpus then Notocasctus and now Parodia.

Like many genera Wigginsia seems to be over split as to species since many are very similar looking with yellow flowers.

Re: Help with Id pls!!!
Agreed - formerly listed under many different names, currently all lumped into Parodia sellowii by most authorities. I'm inclined to agree with the lumpers on this one.
