Attaboy, Tom! But those other two are the same care as T. p. - I wonder what went wrong? I'll be looking for a T. w. when I'm down south.

Man, that's pretty. Looks sooo healthy =D

I've had one of these for better than 2 years and it's never had more than 4 leaves on it at any one time -____-

I keep mine in a gritty mix, water when terra cotta pot feels light & it's under florescents in the winter, outside in full sun in the summer.

It looks exactly the same today, as the day I got it.

How are you caring for yours?

Hookilau -

Perlite, pumice, and a bit of potting soil for me, too. No food. Dry in full sun greenhouse in summer when dormant. Under 1000w metal halide right now. 60-70s day, down to 50 at night. Water when I remember to.

I think that's basically it...

Everything you posted photos of - so far - looks really great. (I doubt your homicidal record!!!) I think that 1000w metal halide helps too.
Another good looking plant.

I have never seen anything like this! I think it's BEAUTIFUL!! ðÂÂÂ

That is one of the nicest Tylecodons I have seen, well done

Lovely plant. I didn't know what a tylecodon was so just had to take a look in here. How big is it as it's hard to tell in the picture?

Here's about a 2.5' tall plant in the Huntington outdoors in late winter (flowering)

^^ much smaller than that one!

It's about 20 inches tall from the soil line with almost a 4 inch diameter base...

Where do you find one of these if you don't mind me asking? Please and thank you! :)

I got mine from Steven Hammer, though I am not sure that he always has them...

Here is a link that might be useful: Spheroid Institute!

Thank you SOOO much!!!

Hmm....I'm doing something wrong then for sure.

Mine has almost no roots =(
My mix isn't as gritty as it can be.

I think I'll re-pot in a pure perlite and see if I can get the Gods to smile on me.

Amazing! I just planted some tylecodon seeds for the first time. I am hoping for a great return.

As always, Tom's plants are impressive! Thanks for sharing!
