Looks to me like some canus genes perhaps mixed with russanthus or chloranthus. Nice!

Might be Ecer. russanthus var. vulpis-cauda?
Re: who is this echinocereus?
oh yeah maybe vulpis-cauda. Don't know that one very well.

I think the russanthus has much in common although different for white spines. I believe that the hypothesis is good: a hybrid between the chloranthus and russanthus.
