This is Hatoria silcornioides, its more common name is Drunkard's Dream due to the bottle-shaped segments. Rooting is very simple. Juststick the end of a cuting into moist (not soggy) soil and keep out of direct sun. It should have a good set of roots in about a month.

Never heard that name used before, but I sure can see why. LOL Norma LOL

I too had never heard that common name before, but now I can write some lyrics for 'The Chicken-Foot Cactus Blues' and be confident of the warm reception I hope to have.
