good grief is this a species that needs further work, I just got a plant that is listed as hemisphaericus, but it looks like neither of the plants. I will post a picture shortly. The leaves are gray, ovate, but hemispherical flat on one side, well rounded on the bottom. Quite interesting, and gives meaning to the name.
