Hi, I have 3 seed grown tricho”s sourced at EGA 2012 from seller who also sells at vic market. They were labeled as bridgesi cross Pacanoi. To me they look like a scop cross Pacanoi.
The pics also show the difference between cutting and not cutting a young cactus. If you cut you will have more cactus and similar size plants in around 4 years. I cut a tip off 1 of the 3 to use the base to graft with and planted tip.
The 2 uncut plants. I call the taller one EGA2012#2 and the shorter one EGA2012#3
This is the cut plant and I call this one EGA2012#1.
If these had bridgesi in them I would expect much bigger spines and darker coloured skin with a blue tinge depending on exact type used.
