Any advice on what I should do next with this guy? I’ve had him 2 years now and he’s looking like something out of a Dr. Seuss book! This is my longest living plant so I’ve never had this problem before!

I don’t know (…cut and propagate?….) but I love the name! 😁

I would agree with FriendofVeg! A while back my cats knocked my favorite succulent down and the crown broke off- I propagated the crown expecting the rest of the plant to not survive, but to my surprise it started to send out new shoots and this was it a little while ago, its even bigger now! (Its like a succulent.. bush??) Maybe you could try propagating the crown/even just pinching the very tip off and see if it branches out at the leaf nodes and gets bushier? Best of luck!! 🌿✨
