Good morning (or afternoon, evening),

I would really appreciate some help classifying this plant. The DOF doesn't really help you guys out, but I can tell you it's a form of cacti or succulant, and has trumpet or coral type extensions...

Any help gladly appreciated.

xerubus, despite having a good collection of very healthy cactii and succulents, I don't really know anything about them.

However, I like your photo very much, and the species looks great. I hope someone knows what it is

cheers

thanks Greg... i'm trying to get into the habit of classifying bugs and plants... it's wonderful to learn, and even better when you can include photography in the process.
