Any ideas? the first one is some sort of rebutia, and not entirely sure about the second as it came with no tag
Weird - a Euphorbia is not a cactus, yet a Pereskia is.

The pictures are a bit blurred, but the first one could be a rebutia, since it flowers from the lower part of the plant. Could it be R. flavistyla?

The next one is hard to tetermine from this photo

That second one has got to be a Parodia of some kind.

The second looks a little like P rutilans, but too blurry to tell. Mike

P. rutilans -- I think you're on the right track

Thank you, Murph, for the pictures. Here, it's winter weather and the plants are asleep. It feels good to see your flowers. I'll have to wait for at least 4 months to get the same
