It is indeed a marvelous plant. If you want to know more about it check this site: http://www.sacredcactus.com/index.htm
I got the plant as a houseplant and had no idea when I got tired of it- indoors that it would be what it is today. (Huge) #4413376

Ah, lucky you to have such a thing able to grow in your yard without freezing its little tuchis off. The selective focus here that your great work has supplied is wondrous. #4414242
