Is this the same as a Madagascan ocotillo? That’s what I have mine listed as in planta

It is! That’s a common name for it. Yours looks great!

I’ve had to tie the stalks together a bit to try and keep it from growing and leaning sideways, I can’t really figure out the best way to guide it

Yeah mine isn’t big enough to have that problem yet. I’ve seen people tie each stalk to its own stake before. I’ve been considering finding somewhere I can let mine get really wacky and wavy though haha
