    My attachments did not attach. Here are the pictures. When I purchased this cactus they called it a Brain Cactus.

    It appears to be Cereus peruvianus f. monstrosa. Try a google image search and compare. Joe

    Mine has smaller needles. Also mine is so much smaller... Could it still be Cereus peruvianus f. monstrosa?

    If not that variety, at least you now have a starting point. All I have to say is a catcus is what I do when I find t*rds where I want to weed or plant.
