Looks very like an elephant foot....

Ooops - I should have said that the Agave is the plant at the back (doh!). I left the Euphorbia (Elephant foot) in for a sense of scale.

Ha ha......used to grow a lot of different Agave's but they take up so much room, both in the garden and then storing them.....

I have a nice small one - almost a bonsai A.ferox!

How have you managed to keep it so small, root trimming?

It's not a ferox, but it looks just like one..........
