What do you guys do with your larger crested plants once they become top heavy? This fella refuses to stand somewhat straight. I keep replanting it into larger pots but it has gotten to the point that, that is not practical anymore. The arm dead center in the pic in actually sticking out from the center at least 16"-18". I'm in a super humid area so I'm trying not to bury it any further.

Re graft it on a six inch wide blue Peru stump.
Cut off the points that slant and graft so you’ll have many crest
I didn’t get lucky enough to grow to this point yet still working on putting in the time and patience.
I had the reaction if you thought it’s soon going to fall over, then pick a side and repot it as if it has fallen over.
Foreseeable problem with that plan is sacrifice of some of the roots of the rootstock being in the orientation of touching the air instead soil.
I use wooden skewers to prop it myself
