Thanks for sharing the super pictures
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.

Thanks! Iann the Eriosyce flower was a nice surprise; I only bought the plant a couple of months ago, actually because I really liked the body form, I hadn't even noticed the bud forming, so the lovely flower is quite a bonus.

Very nice. Your esmereldana has a more green flower throat that mine, really a nice contrast.

My flowers are a relatively even yellow. Still a nice plant though.

Re: A few from today
That's a great plant Eric! My OP pictures were taken on 20th July, but I noticed my M. boolii (just corrected by I pad to boiling!!) was again full of flowers yesterday, and I know it also flowered in March. Does it normally repeat flowering like this? I'm not sure I've seen that before, or recall other Mammillarias doing it.

Re: A few from today
Hi Juster, lovely plants and flowers I must say. I do not grow many Mamms, but the few that I do occasionally flower twice. These are quite common plants so I am sorry that I cannot comment on a choice plant like boollii. ( my iPad changed it to bollocks honest lol ). Cheers
