I have another one, looks quite alike, but spines are shorter and flowers are more at purple side of spectrum. No flower yet :(

I hope you don't mind me uploading to Imageshack for ID, pics can be resized there, so those willing to help can take a better look.

Thanks :)

Perhaps hertrichiana for the first, though I don't say that confidently. The second looks like a Chamaecereus hybrid.
