I don't grow many cacti, but this one's looking rather fine at present and providing a bit of welcome colour in the alpine house.  I'm still not totally sure which generic name I should be using.  :-\

Rebutia (?Aylostera) hoffmannii.

Combo of the  reddish outer colour of the calyx with the vibrant orange of the flowers against the white fuzz  is great. You can see I have a good grasp of the terminology here!
Proving a good year for these Rebutia ( sensu latu) it seems.

Like most Glottiphyllums water them once too often and they explode.  G. fragrans, long-suffering here and a new Sedum hernandezii which is a cracker.
