The Mamm looks like subsp. collinsii, clumps profusely and can go dark purple in colour.

Thank for the replay,
i labeled the first plant as "Mammillaria karwinskiana ssp. collinsii" like you and Tony ID,
3 & 4 i already labled as Cleistocactus saimapatanus and Borzicactus aureispinus
about 2 - the not look exactly like my Epthelnta, but the are very very slow growers - the specie of mammillaria you mentioned also know as low growers?
on one plant when i squeeze the cacti i can fell small central spine, on the second plant there is now central spine...

Hi Oriky
What name have you given the gasteria in photo 4? I can't read the label fully but the plant looks just like one I've got and I've never been sure of the species.
