I started from one single moon succulent 3 years ago and started to slowly add in friends. I thought my oldest one had died but it randomly started growing new limbs, it is so beautiful and makes me smile every time I see it. Just watching it constantly growing everyday 💜

these are grafted! moon cactus (which requires grafting onto another because it has no chlorophyll) on top of dragonfruit cactus in most cases 😊 dragonfruit grows the arms

The dragon fruit is a prolific grower when it starts to mature. They love having a support to climb if you can manage that. Otherwise they will grow all over the place. It may be worth looking into propagating its limbs when you’re confident about it.
