Charles, et. al.:
First, let me say that I think someone is missapplying
the term "Barrel cactus". That term is used for
squat, rounded cacti, not columnar cacti.
Here are my guesses:
A) Cereus uruguayensis "Column Cactus"
B) ? A crested Cereus of some kind
C) Cereus hexagonus
D) A stapeliad (probably a Stapelia species) (not a
true cactus)
E) Callisia fragrans (although I'm not popsitive about
the flowers)
