I bought these on eBay. For a buck, I got both of them, plus shipping of $7.38 (-: I have been looking for a baseball cactus (EUPHORBIA OBESA)for a while now, and I was pleased to find one so cheap on eBay(-: The spiral cactus(EUPHORBIA SPIRALIS) was a bonus(-:
Here are their pictures...

I guess you really can get anything you want on Ebay. Very interesting shaped cactus. I like the basketball one the best. :)
Those are so cool! I never even thought about there being many varieties of cactus.
That first photo doesn't even look like a real plant! Wow! I didn't realize you could shop eBay for plants! I've been wanting a succulent that Pam at Digging has in her front yard. If you know of one, let me know! A blue-green color. Don't know what it's called.

The baseball cactus is really cool! I have never heard of one. It looks kind of red...is it and not green?
Hi meadowview thymes,
The baseball cactus is kinda a brownish reddish color. It is not green.(-: Thanks for stopping by!!! I appreciate your comments(-:
I did not know you could mail plants in pots, dirt, etc... I now when mailing something at the post office one of their question: Is any time live in the box? I always laugh when they say that as I wondered what could be mail Alive? Now I know.... Catcus!
Those are pretty cool. My mom loves cactus plants as well. Good find.
That first cactus looks just like a sea urchin Cindee. And what an e-Bay bargain!
Just came on over to thank you for your visit and comment last week - it was good to see you :)
Have a great weekend!
Hi Skeeter,
Yes you can mail live plants although I am sure you should tell the post office you are doing it. I never do though. (-:
Hi Alex,
Thanks! Yes cactus are so easy to grow and they are interesting too!!
Hi VP,

Thanks for stopping by!!!

That first cactus looks like a craft a person could make. Hmm, that gives me yet another idea. Maybe I should start writing these ideas down so I don't forget everything I want to do....
I didn't know you could buy cacti on ebay. I guess there's truly no limit to what you can buy there.
Hi Jody,
