ID Request - Second opinion needed.

Post by CosmicSerpent33 »

Hey everyone, been a while now since I have posted here, but glad to be back :D
To the point, I have here 3 separate cactus I've attempted to identify myself, but would like a second opinion.

Some sort of Echinocereus, perhaps Pectinatus or Rigidissimus?

This one has me a little stumped, it is young so I understand it can be difficult (sometimes impossible) to ID at this stage.
Possibly Echinopsis Lageniformis f. Monstruosa

Thanks for the prompt response. I feel fairly confident in your ID after taking a look at your suggestions. I was way off on the subterranea :lol:
