This is from a plant I bought in 2007 in 6" pot I believe it was. This ceramic pot tilted on soft dirt- the plant stayed upright. oop- I already posted a full body shot. Oh well..its grown anyways...

These things can take a ton of water..or a lot of dry. Great plants. I'm seeing them planted outdoors in the bay area. SO far so good.
Here's mine with Kenilworth Ivy-Cymbalaria. I didn't plant it..it was natures good taste to put these under the reddish E.trigona's.
