One container with a plant says "I have a plant". Two or more says "I have a collection".

It sounds like you already have the same "bug" that all of the rest of us have. The "NEED" for more cacti! One day you'll wonder how your "collection" got so big, so fast! I wish you the best of luck in establishing a "collection" that suits your fancy. You're in for a very great deal of Fascination,Eeducation, and Pleasure. All of which are greatly to be desired.

So keep coming back here, and you'll meet lots of really fine, decent, giving, helpful people, who are willing to help you with your problems and just Exchange little tidbits of information. From the moderators to the newest members, this is without a doubt the finest Forum that I have ever belonged to.

Thought I would post an update to the original intent of this topic ... the offsets of a Crassula kimnachi ...

I tried to give the plant about a 120 degree turn after each picture ... to show you all the offsets all the way around it. The black arrow on the support skewer is in the same position in the original photo. Compare the first pic here with the last pic on "page 1" of the plant (DSCF3309.JPG) and its offsets. You can see a considerable degree of growth.

And you can see what are almost bald spots where I have broken off offsets to root them before giving them away. They just keep growing back.
