It's hard to believe these two plants are the same species, but they are. They're both
Rebutia krainziana (syn.:
R. marsoneri 'krainziana'), but the second is a large old crest of the same. If you didn't know what it was to begin with, the flower would be the only possible clue.
Wow, that's fascinating! Amazing how different crest make plants look to their norm. Wonderful flowers!! :)
