Any one know this cactus?

Windsor, CA(Zone 9b)

Notocactus co?finnus concinnus v. gerbalitoensis? The third letter of the second word is illegible (my handwriting). I believe that my nursery had picked it up in an estate purchase of cactus/succulents. It has grown huge since I got it in the ground. I have no idea how tall it will get or if it will ever bloom. Any ideas any one? Thanks. Xuling

I definitely don't think your plant is Notocactus concinnus var. gerbalitoensis (see http://www.llifle.com/Encyclopedia/CACTI/Family/Cactaceae/20509/Notocactus_concinnus_var._gerbalitoensis)...not sure what it is though...

Could you post a photo of spine detail? Top and mid-section?

Hola Xenomorph, here are some fresh shots taken in the western sun. I do hope that they help. I appreciate your time and interest. xuling
