0 Evil Genius Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 (edited) Hey Teraferma, you always come across some amazing plants. Both are Saguaros. Carnegia Gigantea. Truly majestic. Edited August 9, 2015 by Evil Genius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Sallubrious Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 (edited) I'm growing both of those species & I couldn't tell either way.The Carnegias seem to have gnarlier spines - there's some calssic botanical insight right there <___base_url___>/uploads/emoticons/default_unsure.pngStuffed if I know Edited August 9, 2015 by Sally 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Evil Genius Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 (edited) Yes, you´re right. Didnt expand the images because it looked so much like Carnegia. But the expanded pics show a lot spinier cactus including the hairy flowers. Edited August 10, 2015 by Evil Genius 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 terraferma Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 (edited) Thanks for the input, guys!! I guess that this following plant (#3) is also Terscheckii, right? Edited August 10, 2015 by terraferma 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
