Hi everyone !

Any idea ?

The second one is of course an Opuntia. It's very small and very thin (1 mm)


Thanx a lot,

the first one looks like a Cochemia (mammillaria) but the centrals aren't hooked.. Wait till it flowers and send some pics :)

Wow, good ID. I'm always impressed when someone on here identifies a cactus from such a small piece like this
Los Angeles, California (USA)
Zone 10b (yearly minimum temperature 1-5° C)

Fishhook cacti are like cats, they only like to be petted in one direction
