Decided to try my hand at more cacti and succulent type plants! (Bonus points for being hardy / prickly cause the cats don't mess with them as much) Here we have two lil guys I picked up omw home from work. The best ID match I could find was on the left: "Echeveria Dionysos" which is a hybrid originating from Echeveria Purpusorum. On the right: SOME SORT OF Eriosyce the best match being "Eriosyce Heinrichiana" and there looks to be a million hybrids of those! Both of them drew me in because of the deep purply / red tones 🏜️ I don't particularly lean towards or reach for hybrids but I love these two nonetheless!

Usually I get splits from pushing growth,
lots of ferts and water. This Capital Cactus Peru clone from
Australia has only received rainwater and gypsum this year.
Must be the abnormally hot sun

Eriosyce occulta
For comparison with the Copiapoa humilis just posted, here is a rather similar-looking dark-bodied cactus in the gnus Eriosyce, also from the coast of northern Chile, but from a completely different genus. Another of the amazing array of cacti to be found in Chile.
