Anyone know what type of cactus this is?

The tag it came with just says "rare cactus" and blue myrtle cactus doesn't look like it matches.
Last watered 1 week ago
Pardon my French. That’s a boobie cactus. Aka blue candle cactus.
Looks like it could be a monstrose cactus?
@captainstardust That's hilarious πŸ˜‚

What makes it even funnier is thats exactly what my boyfriend said it looks like. πŸ™ˆπŸ™‰πŸ™Š
Commonly known as the boobie cactus
Cacti are definitely the most scandalous of all plant families. There's a boobie cactus, and there's also a penis cactus πŸ˜‚
Behold, the penis cactus πŸ‘‰πŸ‘Œ
@stephonicle Oh my gosh! Hehehe.

This thread is making my morning!
@stephonicle @captainstardust @StoutBahiagrass

I apparently need a lithops/split rock succulent too bc they look like butt prints.

I must find both to complete my inappropriate collection!
@WandrngDudette they had lithops in some gorgeous colors at Home Depot a few weeks back. I came this 🀏 close to buying one, but I've been so good sticking to my "no new plant buying" policy so I put it back at the last second πŸ˜›

I have a pot of lithops I've kept alive for almost two years now. Started with three, then two of them split so I had five. Now all FIVE are in the process of splitting! Split rocks can be a bit more finicky. My first one died after watering (the next morning I found a pile of goo where my split rock used to be 😒). Can't recall how the second one died, but it made me not want another split rock for a while. I'll stick with lithops (which actually remind me more of brains, but split rocks are definitely tiny butts)
@stephonicle @WandrngDudette I’ve killed a couple of lithops and a couple of split rocks, both! so I don’t have either. I’m extremely hit and miss with succulents. The only thing that seems to work for me is keeping them very root bound.

I LOVE the inappropriate collection and am absolutely going to go looking for more questionable-looking plants now!
