I saw this one at the nursery the other day, didn't buy it but I'm starting to regret that. Does anyone know what it is?

I want to say Echinopsis cuzcoensis but not sure im right.

a Pilosocereus for sure; P. pentaedrophorus perhaps?

I think Pilif is correct - see http://www.cactuspro.com/photos/Cactace ... ustus.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Which nursery was this?

It was a nursery in Quebec Canada. Is it a interesting specimen?

Absolutely! At least to me! I would LOVE to have this species in my collection - it is one of the most attractive in the genus to me.

I've never even seen it offered before (well...only seeds).

If I were you, I'd go back and nab it before someone realizes what it is!
