Funny How Things Work... Euphorbia opuntioides

The previous post I wrote something to the effect of "it will take longer for the cutting to develop a bulbous root..." as justification for purchasing a new Euphorbia opuntioides grown from seed.  Well, on a periodic patrol for mealie bugs, guess what I saw popping out by the base of the first Euphorbia opuntioides plant...



Yup - that's another shoot coming up which means this plant is developing a central growth.  This plant either got really motivated by the arrival of the smaller one, or it sensed my thoughts and is now doing this to spite me.  I'm glad either way -
