An incredible, absolutely massive tephrocactus with 45 heads (also called cladodes, pups, or balls). Very solid growth and is continuing to grow additional heads. There's a couple spots where the pups broke off previously (see pics), but that's not really an issue with these. Any areole (where spines come out) can create additional pups to fill in the gaps.
PLEASE READ SHIPPING NOTICE :
SEGMENTS MAY DETACH IN TRANSIT - Tephrocactus are extremely fragile at the joints, and segments can detach very easily during shipping, even when carefully packed. Because of this natural growth habit, I cannot guarantee that every segment/head will remain attached during transit. By purchasing, you acknowledge that one or more healthy segments may arrive detached from the main plant.
Normal detachment at the joints is an expected shipping risk with Tephrocactus and is not considered loss of the plant. Detached, healthy segments can typically be rooted and grown as additional plants. I will pack your plant carefully to minimize movement and the risk of detachment. My normal live-arrival policy will continue to apply to significant damage, rot, or loss of the plant beyond normal
Tephrocactus segment detachment. If receiving a specimen with a detached segment would be unacceptable to you, please do not bid or purchase for shipment. Local pickup is also available in Oklahoma, and I am happy to arrange a hand delivery/meeting for your specimen. Detailed photographs and/or video will be taken immediately before packing and shipping so the condition of the plant prior to shipment is clearly documented. Exact plant pictured. Ships bare root (no pot included) or picked up locally in Oklahoma City.
