United StatesEchinocereus lauii
I'm not sure why I selected this plant, but I am very happy with it. It's a very healthy looking plant and It arrived in good condition. I have placed it in a small pot out on my porch and I am looking forward to seeing it flower.

Plants received pretty fast . They are doing well and in quarantine until they can be placed with the rest of the collection. The plant has no flowers at this time, but it is putting out a few babies. I’m happy with the last two plants I purchased from Planet Desert.
