Adenia ballyi is quite similar to its much more common relative A. globosa, but has a few distinct characteristics that make it a more coveted and interesting plant. One of the key diagnostic features is the zig-zagged branches which typically have slightly longer spines than the straight-branched globosa. Although variable, the bluish hue of ballyi gives it a more ethereal impression. Of course, the biggest difference to most collectors is the rarity of ballyi which probably counts a few hundred specimens in its limited Somalian range. Meanwhile, globosa grows in huge populations all throughout North East Africa and is regarded as a poisonous weed by many locals. These are cutting grown plants, which will, with time, form a caudex, although it takes longer than seed grown plants.
