Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...

Hi Headcheese,
Your cactus isn't a cactus at all but is a Euphorbia.* Take a look at these pics, especially the third down on the extreme left.

Maybe Euphorbia trigona - African milk tree.

*When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.

Before today, I had no idea what kind of plant I had.* Several people have since contacted me to tell me that my cactus is in fact a plain old succulent, an euphorbia trigonum.* So I have updated my web site accordingly.*
Thank you for your reply.
