strangebrew Posted March 10, 2006 (edited) They're around, 2 types fat & thin & cuttings only root in high temps. Best bet would be to contact your local cacti/succulent society. If you find one don't water or fertilize it much as they have a tendency to split. It looks as though they're now known as Pachycereus too.

Prophet Posted March 13, 2006 ok thanks Rev, let me know if they are for sale and how much they want for them. Those pics you have there evil are of a Cereus peruvianus var. monstrose. I already have one of those Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
in_spirit Posted March 14, 2006 Thanx for the info I am adding two more photos from a second plant, I think it is the same, what exactly ado you look for to know??? Anyway I will post the photos... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prophet Posted March 14, 2006 yes it is the same. In fact it looks remarkably like the plant that i took some cuttings from the other day. Might even be the same plant. lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chilli Posted December 5, 2011 Bumping this old thread because I have been interested in a cutting of this plant for years now too, and was very interested by rev's comment about some existing in WA. I'm going to try emailing rev but not sure if he has changed addys, but does anyone have any further info? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hellonasty Posted December 7, 2011 It is most definitely around from memory I sourced mine from NSW a few years back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Moses Posted December 7, 2011 It is most definitely around from memory I sourced mine from NSW a few years back. there is a seller on ebay from NSW that has been releasing nice plants rather sporadically but it's such a sort after plant it is hard to buy/win them at a reasonable price, i haven't yet.if you put a search watch on ebay it will email you if one is listed.

CβL Posted December 7, 2011 In New Zealand, both plants I've seen came from the CSSNZ, so I second the advice to join the local cactus society. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
