Lovely.

I love the No8 cactus too.

That is Cleopatra, I have not be able to acquire the Echinopsis Kleopatra, both are lovely, although one needs more cleaning up than the other.

First time for me.

Very nice indeed!

I traded for this plant and the flower came very close to 6 inches across. I'm calling it a Flying Saucer, , only because it had to come from outer space. Surely it can't be a cactus?

An Echinopsis of some kind?

The 100's starting last Friday, today expected 108, Wednesday and Thursday 110, and continue for the next 10 days. Just a normal summer here in the Central Valley of California. This morning something nice to enjoy before the heat melts the flower.
