Echinopsis
Echinopsis aurea var. leucomalla

This is what I meant when I say "profuse". Often sold under Lobivia leucomalla, it's former name.

Thanks, pktoo, regarding the photo!

English is my third language so I'm not perfect in it. My other two languages are from the Eastern world and most have a totally different concept regarding grammar. So, forgive me if you don't understanding what I'm saying. If this was an English class I would let you grade me on my paragraph, but I think this site is more about plants.

That's an astonishing display of buds! For anyone else browsing this recently-activated thread, it's well worth a click on the link above to view the great pics of the completed blooms. Wow!

Pretty photo! Whether called Echinopsis or Lobivia, it is a very rewarding plant, easy to propagate from seed. Here are a couple of mine in the first photo.
Notice the difference in spination between the one on the right and the one on the left. I suppose they are variations.
Next is a second echinopsis, also in bloom this spring. I'm not sure which one it is. With all those offshoots, one could populate the world with it! I didn't get any seed from this one, sadly.
Thanks for the many nice photos. I made one of your pictures the Home screen on my computer. It is nice to see it come up first.
