What are the pink-spined three in 1.jpg? They're quite pretty!

Re: Cactushobbyman Cacti
This is not going to replace the OP responding but if it's any help I believe the very first Mammillaria is M. longimamma (the tag also confirmed it)

Re: Cactushobbyman Cacti
Mamm on page 23 (a) is schwarzii, (c) is peterssonii, and #6 is Mammillaria spinosissima cv. UN PICO, yes I know I did not label all, if I get some time I'll add some names.

Re: Cactushobbyman Cacti
The first hybrid to flower this year. I found it in the corner of the greenhouse and almost missed it. Schick hybrid “Wild Red Berry, " named after professional wrestler Ralph “Wild Red” Berry. This wrestler takes me back in time when my Great Aunt and Uncle use to go at it during the match. Legends like Pepper Gomez, Pat Patterson, Kenji Shibuya, The Iron Sheik, Haystacks Calhoun and let's not forget George The Animal Steele. Old school, none of this Flair, The Hit Man, Hulk, The Rock, even John Cena. No steroids back then. And don't get me started on Roller Derby, Bay Area Bombers, now we're talking. Old school, Charlie O’Connell, Ann Calvello, and Joanie Weston. Now that was TV worth watching, even though it was in Black and White.

I love the E. pentalophus, but I've never been able to keep one flourishing for more than two years.
Catch a falling star--but don't try it with a cactus!

First of all, you have a collection i'd kill for! Very beautiful plants!
And what's the heavily spined cactus in the bowl in the back of the 1st picture? It looks very agressive.
There are more cacti in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
