Monster Den. aggregatum
This isn't my plant, but I thought I'd share with you all anyway! This is a monster Den. aggregatum/ Den. lindleyi (whatever it is they're calling it these days) that was grown in the Florida Southern College greenhouse in Lakeland. It's in my friend's office and I couldn't stop looking at it. I want one!
Please excuse the poor photo quality. I don't have a camera, I only have my phone!

Jeez. Is it mounted on something, or is there a pot/basket under there somewhere. That is some specimen

Oh my! There I was this morning, doing a chicken dance because I have 2 spikes starting to form, as opposed to last year's 1. I have ways to go yet. Tell your friend that we're just drooling over the pictures.

Good growing! It must take many years for it to grow to such size.
