Good idea! Like a small garden staple.

Thank you suesings & Caroline!
I came up with this when taking the plantlets from this plant & at first they only have little nodules for roots. They can not be planted too deep or they will rot & they will not stand up on their own if there is the slightest breeze or movement. I would sometimes use 2 or 3 to anchor them until they grew roots deep enough to stand on their own.

You are a genius!
I'm gonna do with a tiny cactus which cannot stand on its own. Thanks a bunch.

You're very welcome greene!
