A really nice old plant. I like how you can resolve individual years of growth along each stem by the periodic constrictions. It is obviously decades old. I hope my landscape plant looks like that one day. Smiling I have allowed for a couple of meters of lateral spread.

Definitely a beautiful mature specimen. So many other varieties but this was my favorite. I was shocked at the super arid conditions though, some of the plants looked in dire need of water, but I guess they know what they're doing. Smiling

Hey, they are blooming Hurray!
Pretty small flowers, compare to the size of the plants.

My plant has a very different flowering behavior. Only at or near the tips, not lower down. Here mostly in between waves of flowering:

Not many of these in my collection due to them disliking lower temps . Here is one that is managing to survive my care . It's just been reborn after months and months dormancy

Still some finishing work to do in the garden, but the medusa zone looks good so far:

It is a cool form. I am thinking about putting it in the garden next to my biggest Mammillaria plumosa, also with a short-stemmed, ultra-branchy mounding habit, also filling a 12" pot. As a kind of duet of shared form, if that's how it ends up.

Hard pruned some of the E. Knuthii, ranging from 30cm to 1 meter. I think they are enough to propagate another 1,000 new plants. Blinking

Allowing my imagination to wander, I saw that scene as a big pile of green snakes. Like out of a movie, just dropped on the scene by the villain. Like a sign that maybe it's time to leave. Smiling

I suppose you can't place something like that at your curb?
Around here you can do that and people see it walking/driving by and take it along. The Cissus quadrangularis comes out of my ears, if I don't cut it down.... Smiling

There is not many people pass by my house, and I don't think they will have much interest on those snake like shrubs, only C&S lovers will appreciate them.
