Golden Butterfly Lobivia

For years we've had a plant which was labeled Lobivia 'Easter Bonnet'. Lynn-Marie crossed two of these plants and got these flowers, and the plants are smaller than the Easter Bonnet parents. They were seeded in 1997 and she calls them 'Golden Butterfly'.
While the rest of the country is sweltering under unbearable heat, we're having a couple of days of warmer weather, getting up into the lower 80s F. I don't know if we can take it that hot! :)

      Pictures 1 and 7 are not cacti but Aloes. Number 2 is a Mammillaria, and Number 5 is a Notocactus (syn. Parodia). I won't venture a guess as to species. With more time I could give you names of the other cacti, but I'll let someone else give it a go.
