Many flowers.. lets see.. according to plant diameter, and number of flowers-to-be, I'd say this is many:

On the other hand, some plants have quite smaller diameter, and less wanabees:

Just bragging with last one, almost missed it, epithelanthas should have red flowers in my humble opinion... :)

Having thought about this to get as many flowers as possible in a pot you need a big plant with small flowers :idea: ...

This is Crassula 'Springtime', which has been mentioned in another thread. It is about 2cms across, a lot of flowers on a small plant.
