I have two different clones (or species?) of pereskiopsis. One hairy and one bald. The hairy clone gets bigger leaves, glochids, spines, and stocks. This clone grows slower and also seems to take longer to get woody. The bald clone grows smaller stocks, glochids, spines, and leaves. It grows faster and gets woody faster.
Keep in mind these pictures are of plants in the same sized pots, light cycles, soil mixtures, fert/watering cycles, and everything.
Hairy clone

PS: Yours look like the bald clone grown in different conditions.
Thank you. Really interesting.

looks to be the same plant (p. spathulata) with different growing conditions
your first pic looks like ones in my gh and the second pic looks like one i have outside in partial shade.
ps the one outside flowered for me a few yrs ago, after i put it in full sun & baked it for a few months...

how do you know they were cacti?
A local guide told me so. If you visit there, the guilds tell you so. Those fossils are quite famous I guess.
No-one knows what really they are (or maybe there might be sientific artcles about those fossils...).
But I personally give no doubt about it.

I saw many fossils of columnar cactus with around 2-4 meters of diameter in that region.
