Hi Tina ; Both look familiar :wink:
The first plant could be Neoporteria ( Eriosyce ) chilensis, but to be honest, it looks more like an Acanthocalycium to me. :eek:
the second one is slightly more difficult with it being grafted ( is that how it would look on its own roots ?) I will have to check on them both in the greenhouse tomorrow.

They could both be Eriosyce aurata of some sort. I'm not as familiar with plants so big or grafted, but maybe the first one E. spinibarbis and the second E. sandillon or just E. aurata.
