Zigzag Cactus
When I saw that Zigzag Cactus in the flower shop, I fell for it immidiately. So I asked for his name, and they told me: "Oh, this is just another Euphorbia." - I contradicted them that this is a catus for sure. So the the flower seller enlightened me with importance that cacti are a subspecies of Euphorbias.
Well, you should not believe in everything you are told by professionals. I prefer to ask you: have you any idea about this guy?
Thank you in advance

Well.... I still can't believe it, though your pictures of S.anthonyanus are a lot more convincing than these of the E.anguliger. They seem to grow in a more familiar way. Wow!!!!
Can't wait to see some blooming to verify the naming!!!
Thank you, guys

Very nice find Ruth.
Stagger me though... I wonder just how much bad information gets thrown around out there... I personally would have thought that cacti are actually subspecies of roses!! (just joking of course)
...better not say that too loud I guess.
