Had this Cactus for about 40 years, given to me by an elderly lady who
said she could not get it to flower. The original large plant flowered a
couple of years ago whilst we were away (Sod's law!!) but now the
offshoot is flowering. Anyone with knowledge of cacti know what this is?

Very nice. It might be a variety of Echinopsis (maximiliana?).
