Same spiral pattern math that one encounters with spiral galaxies, I believe. I have grown South African succulents for years to enjoy their evolution from seedlings to adults. Aloes are a little outside my area of specialization, but seeing photos like this motivates me to travel to Africa to see all this before habitat destruction, goat grazing, etc., advance any further.

Very nice.
But you’re just posting this kind of provacative thing here since you can’t figure out how to generate many comments on Pandagon. Admit it.
(Actually, I have the whole monstro thread queued for perusal on my trans-Pacific leg.)
