Title: Anonymous cactus

I snapped this anonymous cactus on a trip visit to the local nursery in November.
The nursery now has a large stock of cacti and succulents of all sizes and shapes

I think the second plant is a fenestraria, commonly known as "baby toes"

Andrew, I think you are probably correct in thinking the plant with yellow flowers is Fenestraria.

I looked for Fenestraria  in the index of THE MEDITERRANEAN GARDEN  and found that  it is mentioned in number 52, April 2008 in MY WOODEN ROCKERY  by Bob Wright
