G'day all...
I've got a young Lophophora seedling grafted onto Pereskiopsis that seems to be growing oddly. This little guy was grafted some months ago, and seemed to take a long time to get established. Over the last couple of months it has taken off, however the growth seems a little bit odd. Can anyone tell me what's happening here?
A loph graft... possibly going to a crest?

A bit of an update on this one...
It's still growing, and still looking pretty funky. I know peres tends to distort scions by pumping them up, but this little guy is getting twisted.
At this point, I'm thinking it might be going to three heads, but I still can't really pick out what the result will be. Any takers?[/img]

Here's an update...
I realise it may be difficult, but can anyone here hazard a guess as to what type of loph this may be? I had a mixture of fricii, koehresii, decipens, diffusa and williamsii growing... this was the sole survivor after a possum got to my seed trays. Aside from the photos here, the only further info that I can give is that the growth habit seems much smaller than standard williamsii that I have in my collection.
