In fact, it reminded me of an old Phrag.besseae in its growth habit. A friend in Chicago lays his besseaes down sideways in bonsai trays and pins them down, with great success. I did something similar with the druryi as regular potting required a choice of whether to bury most of the plant (which would have caused it to rot) or have most of it not in the mix at all (which would of course eventually lead to plant death as the newer growths out of the mix would not grow roots).
