I got this cactus as a gift - one of the Pet Trees on a keyring. There was nothing on the packaging to tell what species of cactus it is, so I was wondering if any of you kind folks would be able to help.

Thank you.

Its not a cactus, its a succulent in the mesemb family. Corpuscularia? John might have some idea. Or you could post it in the Succulent ID section in case some specialists don't check over here on the cactus side.

I think it is delosperma lehmanii.

So there's the answer on the key ring plants. Nice growing Friggly!
