0 compost Posted May 23, 2012 Looks like a cut I got off PD a while back that he called short-spined bridgesii.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Stillman Posted May 23, 2012 I was gonna say scop x bridge or super pedro or Lance or the list goes on.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 kapitän kamasutra Posted May 23, 2012 Nice plant. I was thinking pachanoi, but I'm not familar with hybrid traits. Do super pedro or lance grow V-dents like this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Stillman Posted May 23, 2012 I think depending on the environment at this size they probably could. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 watertrade Posted May 23, 2012 I was gonna say scop x bridge or super pedro or Lance or the list goes on.... Thanks I have it sitting next to a superpedro and its quite different. I have some scop x bridges which look different too. I have a 'lance' somewhere I will be able to I can compare it to. I will have a look. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 shruman Posted May 24, 2012 Yeah looks Super Pedro to me, thats where Super Pedro comes from too I find it quite interesting you think it's different considering all the debate regarding the synonymity of these type of plants, lance, cordobensis, spiny scop etc.maybe they are all clones or or I have been thinking of late maybe they came from a highly homogenous batch of seeds. At any rate you seen to have an extreme fascination with dolls 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 watertrade Posted May 24, 2012 (edited) At any rate you seen to have an extreme fascination with dolls haha, I spose it looks that way - given my avatar pic and all one of the neighbours kids chucked the headless man over the fence - It sat around in the garden for ages but now rides high on one of my plants. I will get a pic side by side with what I know to be the common superpedro and you will see what I mean. At the same time as getting this plant I also got the super pedro.

0 Evil Genius Posted May 24, 2012 You know, with all the hybrids around this is rather difficult to say what it is. It definately reminded me of the Super Pedro but thats all i can tell you. I have cacti in my garden that throw out diffrent looking pups every single time so i wouldnt be surprised if its one of them or maybe one of the many hybrids that it produced.

0 tonic Posted May 24, 2012 I would have said Super Pedro too. I have two different plants of Super Pedro and to me they look a bit different. The one in your pic reminds me a lot of one of them. At the very least I would probably lump it into that whole spiny scop/cordobensis complex. That doll has some pretty well developed thigh muscles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 watertrade Posted May 25, 2012 Jim the owner of cactus country has a reputation for when asked about what are the specific Trichocereus species are in the gardens, the answer is always 'hybrids'. I Think I will have to be happy with this answer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Evil Genius Posted May 25, 2012 Could have been me. The more diffrent hybrids you raise from seed, the more you know that many of them can look so goddamn similar. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 CβL Posted May 25, 2012 If this were my plant, I would just stick with calling it pachanoid. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Stillman Posted May 25, 2012 I would call it a Strathmerton hybrid at least if someone passes it on its heritage will be at least acknowledged. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 dazza501 Posted May 25, 2012 i would classify this cacti as a pachanoi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Stillman Posted May 25, 2012 it has more in common with scopocula or cordobensis then pachanoi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 tonic Posted May 25, 2012 I have to agree with Stilman. It really doesn't have the traits usually associated with T. pachanoi IMHO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 watertrade Posted May 26, 2012 ok, this won't add too much to the conversation but here is what I know to be Superpedro that is growing just next to the other plant - . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 dazza501 Posted May 26, 2012 i stand corrected, spines are a little long, not green enough and not enough ribs for pach.The problem with trich's are they interbreed regularly, like dog breeds the more interbred it is, the more likely it will be called a mongrel. then we go around making assumptions. eg (i think it has a bit of staffy in it or bully) lol.

0 tonic Posted May 26, 2012 I can see a clear resemblance there. Though I can also detect a difference too. To me it's looks like there could a little bit of Bridgesoid in there. Hmm, I am definitely becoming more interested in this one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Stillman Posted May 26, 2012 (edited) this is my Scop x bridgesii (psycho0) originally purchased from Herbalistics by Hunnicut, for comparison. I would think your plant is more super pedro-esque than this plant. Edited May 26, 2012 by Stillman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Ethos Posted May 26, 2012 Wow interesting thread. I guess I may possibly have a scop X bridge in my collection, I will post pics for comparison when I can take them but what I thought was a pach X scop looks exactly like what you've got there stillman 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Stillman Posted May 26, 2012 and M smith said he thought it was a small cordebenses which I think alot of people think the Lance clone is which is by all accounts is the same clone as Super pedro. lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 M S Smith Posted May 26, 2012 (edited) I said that was a T. cordobensis type? Hum... Looks something like I might imagine T. pachanoi X T. bridgesii to look like. The transverse furrows (V-notches) keep me a bit on the T. pachanoi side, sort of like this "Kimnach" T. pachanoi, but the angularity of the ribs has me seeing a bit of T. bridgesii. Here's my own "Kimnach" T. pachanoi. ~Michael~ Edited May 26, 2012 by M S Smith 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
