a column
When a stalactite and stalagmite meet, they form a column or pillar.
The joining of a stalactite and stalagmite is called a column. It forms when the two mineral deposits meet and grow together over time in a cave.
When a stalactite and stalagmite grow together, they form a column. This happens when water dripping from a stalactite reaches the floor and the mineral deposits from the water build up to create the stalagmite. Over time, the two formations can merge to become a solid column.
column. A column is formed when a stalactite and stalagmite grow long enough to meet and fuse together, creating a pillar-like structure in a cave.

When a stalagmite and a stalactite meet, they form a column or pillar. This occurs when a stalactite hanging from the ceiling and a stalagmite growing up from the floor merge together over time, creating a solid structure in a cave.
If you mean the result of them meeting, tip to tip, as they grow, then thickening from that as a single shaft of calcite from roof to floor, the result is a "Column".
They are called columns. Columns are formed when a stalactite and a stalagmite are joined together.
It is called a Stalagmite. The corresponding formation on the cave roof is a Stalactite.
That's called a stalagmite. A similar object descending from the roof of a cave = is a stalactite.
It is called a stalaGMite. StalaCTites hang from the top. Memory key: the C in stalactite means Ceiling - and G in stalagmite means ground.
