Yeah it makes it look really old!! Ive never really seen this type of texturing on other pachyies. Not sure if it has anything to do with being indoors or not.

Its not in a very big pot, I think its in like a 5in? I think the measurement is about a quart. It never seems to grow much in the caudex so hadn't felt the need to pot it up anymore, until it told me it needed to. Put ive been considering putting it into a nice pot this year.

I have found that with the rosulatum subspecies they do a little bit better in smaller pots, back when I was still figuring it out how to grow them properly I lost a few to overpotting. They almost seem to do better this way underpotted. I have observed them almost putting on more size in smaller pots than normal
This behavior is true for the pachyies like P. eburneum, P. denisflorum, P. brevicaule, P. hormobense (which i lost all of these) and these other related small species that seems to do better in smaller, shallower pots. But P. lamerei , P. saundersii, P. lealii, and larger species seem to appreciate more room than less.

The morning glory which blooms for an hour, differs not at heart from the giant pine, which lives for a thousand years.
