Are they huge? Mine is pretty small, but still bigger than the non-elephantidens plants.

I suppose they’re about 5cm across, Ian (just a guess!). Certainly larger than the type.
Left one is 25 years old ( was late husband’s plant), right one about 15 years old.

Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.
