For awhile I called this “Shaff’s Tumor”, but then changed it to SCB — “\u003cstrong\u003eShaff’s Cresty Balls”.  \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e——\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eRooting instructions included in every package.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eAllow 7-10 days for cut-to-order listings to callous before shipment.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e“👑“ means Kingstock, usually reserved for named clones or rarer cultivars. “💎” means extra primo. “🌶️” means that it packs a punch, two\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003e“🌶️🌶️” is my highest ranking, and none (🚫🌶️) usually means that I have no knowledge (yet) in the spice department.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThe cactus you see here is the same cactus you get, unless noted as an inventory listing.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eAll plants are hard grown rough-n-tumble … outdoors in the ground without shade control, so these soldiers have adaptive fortitude 💪 listing keyword 48mid\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Cactus Jones","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46752935706801,"sku":null,"price":129.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0516\/4230\/2641\/files\/10B7EDD4-B877-470B-8A41-835788979606.jpg?v=1775694719","url":"https:\/\/www.thecactusjones.com\/products\/%f0%9f%92%8e%f0%9f%91%91%f0%9f%92%8e-scb-first-release","provider":"The Cactus Jones","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
