I've need of Id's for 6 cacti. This is 5 of 6. Apologies for orientation. This is NOT how the picture uploaded is oriented. The system is rotating it for me.

OK ... with a genus name I go to google and find 2 that look like this ... a morawetzianus and a winteri ... any further ideas?

I think there are a couple other ones as well. I don't have any myself. There are other members that may help you as well.

Wouldn't be winteri which is pendulous by that size. Perhaps Cleistocactus tupizensis?

I don't know ... i googled Cleistocactus tupizensis, and what I saw there did not quite match what I have. the spines of what I have are VERY dense, softish (comparatively) and VERY yellow.
