Two recent acquisitions posted one here before and got a partial id as a Echinopsis.
I only had one picture of it and it wasnt a good one so hopefully I can get it id'ed this time

The other cactus (some kind of ferocacus maybe?) I found at Lowes today..

The first one makes me think about Melo of some kind

The second one does look like a Ferocactus but I don't know which one.

I'm perplexed by the first one. Could also be a young Trichocereus of some sort.

The second perhaps is F. emoryi rectispinus?
