Re: Identification please?
First one looks like a Rebutia/Mediolobivia, but easier to ID the species with some flowers.
Second is Ferocactus hamatacanthus.
Third looks like an Echeveria agavoides

Re: Identification please?
Rebutia tarvitaensis could be a good starting point for when it flowers.

Re: Identification please?
If you can give the Rebutia a cool, dry rest over the winter it should flower. The flowers will help to determine the species.
It looks a nice plant, although how it grows upsidedown I'm at a loss!

Re: Identification please?
Nice to see U was right about the flowering! It is really showing its paces.
It is not Tarvitaensis. That has large, orange-red flowers.
I'm no Rebutia expert, but I would suggest either Atrovirens or Steinmannii, but don't quote me on that!

Re: Identification please?
Thanks CactusPip. I took your advice and it's certainly paid off with the flowers. The plant is on its second round and there's still many more not opened yet!

Re: Identification please?
It could be a rather weak-spined form of R. spegazzinii. It's not steinmannii.

Re: Identification please?
Has the Rebutia a tap root?
