Echinopsis ???

[Kamos]

I've been calling this Echinopsis spachiana for the last 3 years......and then it bloomed yesterday! Everything I've
read about E. spachiana says white flowers. Can anyone help me give this the correct name?

It might be huascha or E. rowleyi=Lobivia grandiflora. I find them difficult to tell apart and they have been treated as synonyms by some. What colour is the throat of the flower?

Thanks phil for the reply. I can't really see the colour of the throat, but here is another view of the flower,if that might help.Thanks again.

As I said, they have been treated as synonyms by some.

The thicker, more upright stems make me lean more towards Echinopsis rowleyi but these tend to have a more purplish throat to the flower, which was why I asked.

Thank you Dave and phil. I think I can label it now.

O wow ! !

Thats really nice that.

Would be nice if my Echinopsis very similar would flower too. Still haven't got a 100% positive ID on mine either .
