Crassula ovata 'Gollum', with, IMO, too much arboreal growth for that trunk's strength. You might trying thinning out the number of branches there.

Thank you very much for your input! Is Gollum the same as ET Fingers?

I just received this plant, and think I'll be making some larger cuttings as per your suggestion. (It did not seem wobbly / floppy at all, though.)

Jude,

I don't know the 'ET Fingers' plant, but others will.

It seems to me that there's too much upper growth for the trunk's diameter, but if you think it's fine, then it's no problem either way. The plant will let you know, and if I'm correct, pieces will break off (but they're still able to be used to grow new plants).

Jeff

Thanks, Jeff!

I'll bet if you gave this plant some TLC in the form of a trim and a repot it would branch further and farther and put on load of new branchlets on the main stems. It is the start of the main growth period for it.

How fast do they grow anyway?

Thanks for the input!

As fast as conditions allow. Ideally it's a Mediterranean climate situation, but one generally has to modify from that.

Yours looks like 'Gollum' too, Rina. That lower trunk is tremendously delightful

in its girth.

Thanks! And love this other Gollum too!

Here it is when purchased, just repotted and quite limp:

Wow - that's a huge change in 7 years! How'd you get the trunk so wide? (Hope it's not a girl... she'd take offense . ha ha)

I started few new plants from leaves and couple of cuttings. Here are 2 leaves, started in 2014:

Here is one of them, photo taken Sept.29/2019 - so it is exactly 5yrs old now:

Jeff, SS

Thank you, I was looking for more photos...

I keep them outdoors as much as possible, in full sun whole day. I hardly ever fertilize my succulents - probably just 1-3 times during their stay outside - if they need to be watered by me and I have water with fertilizer left from watering garden. They get watered by rain usually. I know many fertilize their succulents regularly - I grow them hard, lol.

I keep it in quite small pot, and I pruned only 2 pieces off. Otherwise - nothing special.

That Coral is magnificent! (aka Skinny Fingers).

Margaret

Another name to remember!

Gollum, Skinny Fingers/Coral, ET fingers, Shreak Ears - what is what? And maybe there are more names.

I have others that were ID-ed as Green Horn tree/Giant Hobbit:

and another, ID-ed as Red Horn tree:

I used to think they were just Hobbits...
