I think it's turning into a great year for flowers.
This Lobivia (for which I've never had a positive species identification - any ideas?) has managed 128 in its first two flushes so far this year...

Re: A good year
The flower is certainly like hertrichiana, but my L. hertrichiana is rather longer spined, and not quite so hatchet tuberculed.
