One of my Geohintonia mexicana has produced several late flowers this year - this is the third flower this week:

The flower looks [size=x-large]huge[/size]. Or is it just a tiny plant?

That's quite late, must be the recent warm sunny spell. I haven't noticed flowers on any of mine recently, I'll check tonight

I noticed flowers just opening on my Mammillaria pringlei. I can't recall it flowering at this time last year?

It does look huge, doesn't it Ian! It isn't as big as it looks - just the perspective, plant is 10 years old and in a 2" pot still.
