I am thinking of possible Trichocereus taquimbalensis.

Thank you pointing in the correct direction. Spent time again on Llifle and I think it may be this Echinopsis chiloensis var. borealis since many Trichocereus are now classified as Echinopsis. What do you think?

Hi Mike,
You could be right.
It's very hard to differentiate some Trichocereus, especially from pictures. Even same species can looks quite different, especially the spines.
I have Trichocereus/Echinopsis chiloensis, T. chiloensis var. borealis and T. chiloensis var. panhoplites. They are still small (from seeds, 3+ yrs), still can't see the different yet. 2 of the T. chiloensis var. borealis I have, the spines look very different from each other.

There are a lot of random hybrids, too.
