Adam's cacti family

I've got a friend who is also cacti oriented person. Athough he doesn't have enough space, nor special winter storing cool place for his cacti, he is still growing them and his number of species in his collection is constantly increasing. It is great fun to talk about cacti with him, and our habit is to very carefully inspect each other's collections. Of course we share our cacti between us, so we have more and more of them. It's a kind of addiction, you can never stop. Yesterday he gave me some photos of his plants to exhibit in my blog. Here you are:

1. Mammillaria microhelia - from Mexico. They are small - maximal hight 15cm.

2. I'm not sure, but it may be Mammillaria Longiflora, however the flowers don't have the dark pink stripe along the petals.
3. This is probably Mammillaria sempervivi.
4. This is Mammillaria Vetula ssp. gracilis. It's tiny and convinient and beatiful.
5. Epiphyllum or Epicactus. This is also cactus, although it looks like 'normal' plant with leaves. This one is real beauty!
