I think the first is Opuntia. I have one and will try to take a photo soon.

I'd guess the first one is an Austrocylindropuntia pachypus, possibly somewhat crested at the top.

Hi Flumsquid, i am sure the second one is a Pilosocereus. I have the very strong suspicion its Pilosocereus arrabidae but it could also be one of the lesser known ones too. Arrabidae is very similar though.

Nt sure of its name but I was recently given a cutting of the plant in the first picture, crested like your one.

I have a suspicion its nt quite the same as this crested plant in the above photo.

I have seen a big-ish specimen which grows upright like your one, with crested pups all around the top like the branches of a tree.

A very nice looking plant! Grows really fast when given lots of root-space too.
