Would you have a photo of the cristate specimen at hand?
Regret the cristate part dried up last summer, the normal offsets probably sucked all of the goodness out of it!

I am afraid this might be happening to my plant as well, the cristate part is not looking very healthy. I will take care of it as soon as the soil dries up so that there is at least a little bit of water in the plant itself.
