Question

Bought two of these on sale. They had no tags and the people were clueless on their names. Couldn't pass up .50 cents a plant.

Thanks for having a look.

I think what you have there is

matucana madisoniorum (I have heard of this being used in love magic on the north coast of peru out of interest, as a magic token, not ingested)

yes crested opunita

and a baby echinocactus grusonii
