Cactus ID

Can anyone help me with the ID of this barrel cactus? I've had it for years....lots of years but don't know who she/he is

 

Echinocactus, but which one? similar to grusonii....at least this will put you in the right family of Cacti. Cheers.

 

Not Astrophytum, they have hairy buds and fewer ribs. I think it is a Ferocactus.

 

Not sure if these pics of the flowers will help

 

Well whatever it is, you sure are doing a great job for it to have so many offsets and to be blooming so fully. Well done!

 

Ferocactus schwarzii?

 

Could be Ferocactus but their growth habit is solitary...but I guess they could, on occasion, pup out....

 

A once solitary plant with a damaged growing tip, maybe? But there are close relatives to F. schwarzii that often cluster, echidne and glaucescens for example.

 

Don't k now if it makes a diiference regarding the number of spines but each has 5 in the cluster

 

Ferocactus glaucescens seems like it could be a match.

F. glaucescens should have a bluish wax coating, and the plant in the photos do no seem to have it. I believe the layer can be washed off, but it should be visible close to the apex.
