Spectacular! My eyes are pealed for one of these. I love the blooms on this. Seems they are all small colonies with these bright trumpet blooms like this. Do you know what kind it is?

I'm sorry Joseph, I don't know it's name. I've had it for a long time and I'm sure that it came with a tag...but it's long gone by now. Maybe I can save you some seeds. I've never collected the seeds before. I guess that the flowers should produce a seed head The flowers are on the medium/small size, not quite an inch across. When I bought it it was more an elongated shape and now it's this cluster of balls that I like more. I love it with all these flowers at once!
Thanks guys :) This year is the first year that it's had more than one or two flowers at a time.

Lovely!!
Check out 'Rebutia albipilosa' on the internet - I think it is similar to yours.
If you go to http://www.cactus-art.biz/schede/REBUTIA/Rebutia_albipilosa/Rebutia_albipilosa/Rebutia_albipilosa.htm there is a good description, and there is a TN grower at Old Man Cactus if you are looking for a plant, Greenthumb!
