Not sure that is M. zeilmanniana with all that wool? May be the pink flowered M. bocasana?

I had M. zeilmanniana when I first started growing cacti and said I wanted to get it again so Maja sent me a couple of tiny offsets off her plant last year about 2cm diameter. Just to show you don't need big mature plants for flowers, they are now 3cm diameter and excelling themselves:-

If I show you the mother plant, you'll see why it flowers so generously:
