I lately realised that the fan shape of my huernia "crested" cristata has transformed into long shape huernia.
I cut one from crested (picture left) , root it , and the look and feel is exactly the same as Huernia Schneideriana ( picture right), can not tell the differences
Note: I am not sure if all the ID's are correct those are the name that I got from seller or google.
I have a lot of questions about this crested thing:
1. looking at the development, at the end of the day, all the crested fan shape will become the long shape, then there will be no more crested version, where the hell the sellers get the crested huernia then? should we always cut and reroot the crested version before it grows big ?
2. I like the crested model of the cactus/succulent, Is there anyway for us to prevent this transformation to "long" shape happening, I really do not want my myrtillocactus to transform
3. Can we make the transformation the other way round, from the long shape transform to crested shape, my Huernia Schneideriana has hundreds of new branches/small cactus, but none of them is crested
Below are my other collection that has transformed from crested to non crested..
Appreciate any input/insight, tx.
