Let me introduce the twins that I met in the town proper yesterday. Speaking of the word tower, they are called the yellow tower cactus. For me, this name is a perfect description than the other common names, such as lemon ball cactus and golden ball cactus. Thus, it cannot be debatable when it comes to the scientific name: 'Parodia leninghausii.'
Do you like these twins shown upon you?

They are pretty little plants. I wouldn't want to be around if you decided to pick one of them up and yelled "Catch!" at me...

@Deepizzaguy They are the only ones that I considered nieces and a nephew. Before the pandemic, my family and I cut the tie with the relatives on both sides.

@Shavkat That is a nice thought about your nieces being the twin towers.
