That's a shame. But it gives me a new idea for a photo contest: "Cactus That Most Resembles A Human Body".

Echinopsis lageniformis monstrose or Pachycereus scrotti monstrose ought to win that hands down! Possibly contested by M. geometrizans monstrose.

P. scotti monstrose
E. lageniformis monstrose
M. geometrizans Fukurokuryuzinbok

I wonder if that plant will adjust and revert to non-etiolated growth. Sometimes cacti do that if they are in the shade for a while.

Well, those examples are quite, ummm, striking--but they're more representative of a body part. Nevertheless, I think we could have a valid category here!
