A reply from Sh. Tristan Davis:

"Echninocereus rigidissimus...possibly ssp. rubispinus.\"

And Sh. Grant Meyer:
"Fun! Yup, I agree with Tristan on this one, Echninocereus rigidissimus , known locally as “Arizona rainbow cactus”. Nice big specimen too!"

Gurcharan Ji,

Thanks for forwarding this Cactus seen at the Flower Show.

It seems to match with Echinocereus rigidissimus var. rubrispinus on searching.

Will wait for experts to comment.

Regards,

Aarti
