Nice. 
Orobanches are a nuisance over here, they screw up our fava bean patches pretty good.

Astrophytum capricorne - I love the red throat of this flower - possibly the nicest flower in the genus.

I was at a greenhouse yesterday and saw this little Rebutia about to pop, I just couldn't help myself! 

At $4, no regrets on that purchase!

Nice, but are you sure it's not a xGasteraloe?

I'm pretty sure when I bought it years ago it just said Haoworthia,but now that you mention it,it does look similar to Gasteraloe Theo

Yes, Haworthia and Gasteria are both in the family Asphodeliaceae - formerly Liliaceae.

Went to a nursery today, saw a bunch of cactus that was about to flower. Some had fake flowers glued on 
there was one in particular that had some really big yellow flowers that looked like they would be opening tonight, but I decided against spending the 10 dollars...I'm that broke ha it was definitely nice to look at them.
Will Trichs flower in areas drastically outside of their zone? Does grafting to peres make a trich flower faster like it does lophs joking, I'm now curious what the biggest grafted trich has been...

Grow them on their roots and see. I had one grafted to peres that im surewould never have flowered on it but lophophora so easy on peres to flower. I have never had a trich to flower in my possesion.

They do take a while to flower.
