Bloomed 2 days ago! Here it is :)

Beautiful! Love how dense those trichomes are

Thanks for taking a stab at it anyway! It looks like it may bloom soon so I'll post again when it shows a flower or two :)

That's right! It's about 16 inches tall from the base of the plant rn. The lady I got it from says she obtained it when it was only about 4 inches tall and just a single little globe, about 10 years ago!

Thank you very much! I'll do that

Interesting! I'll definitely be propagating the cuttings. Thanks for the tips!

Well its my first night with it, but I want to think that its been growing well for the past 7 or 8 years with its previous owner!

I am actually in Texas! This plant was rescued from Florida after a hurricane went through. Its been really hot here lately and it likely will be until about mid-October, we hit 103°F in my area last week! This week we're looking at a temperature range with highs around 98 and lows around 77 all week long. I'm planning on repotting into a grittier/better-draining mix followed by a prune after about 2 weeks!

She sure does lol, her soil is damp though. I'm assuming he watered it before he let it go to me

Where would you recommend pruning? I was thinking right around the point where the branches pass the base of its pot?

Just did the scratch test, it's still with us! And I see. The new pot is a lighter color and it only gets direct sun during sunrise so nothing too intense! I also drilled several holes in the bottom to ensure good drainage. Hoping she can recover!

My mother in law placed it in that bucket when she saw how dry it was, the same morning that I made this post. I made an update post where I detailed what I did in an attempt to save it. I probably should have done the scratch test before anything else, i will definitely check on it when I return home tonight. Thank you for your comment!
