I bought this as a little plant from you guys two years ago an it’s grown an insane amount! What is this? I’m so curious about it.

Thanks,
Geoffrey

Geoffrey,
Wow! That’s a very happy Opuntia (Austrocylindropuntia) subulata monstrose. Really a beautiful specimen. It probably has another year before it needs to be pruned back in that pot.
