New to me
I came across this in amongst a box of Dutch imports. It's the first I have seen like it. I think it must be a monstrose form of something and although I have not had time to repot it I think it has to be a graft as it has no green in it. It can't be a cristate as I can't see a growing point.

Very good Roy! Looks like Lycopersicon beta-carotensis cristata.

Re: New to me
Hi Guys,
well I never actually said it was a cacti I just said it came in a box from Holland!.........It is indeed your humble tomato..........sorry if I misled you.......it was just in the grit so I could photograph it. (if you believe that you will believe any thing) :-))))
