Re: New purchases
Look like a decent size for the price. No idea what they are but I'm sure some will ID them!

Re: New purchases
Looks like Mamm elongata f. cristata, and 2x Mamm ‘uno pico’ to me. Ofc I could be wrong.
But I bet you knew that already!

Re: New purchases
I thought it was uno pico but obviously they look like they must have had growing point damage or is it a new sport getting them to stack
And yes elongata f cristata

Re: New purchases
Bit more tricky, maybe:
1 Parodia species
2 Echinopsis (in the globular traditional sense - calorubra maybe?), although somewhat reminiscent of a Wigginsia
3 Lobivia - difficult without flowers to narrow it down further
4 Echinopsis leucantha or melanopotamica perhaps?
5 no 1 and 2 in same pot.

Re: New purchases
If nobody else wants to offer any suggestions I'll say it's probably pentlandii - blunt petals and a white throat circle. Spines are thicker than is typical.

Re: New purchases
Thanks Phil I originally bought it as it looked different/strange with the bit on the side
