Here's some shots of my semi monstrose Altman pachanoi. Bought in Fev 2013 at 12" now 39+"

Lowe's gets supplied by Altman Plants for cacti and succulents. They are very hit and miss for Tricho's tho other than grandiflorus hybrids. And Altman's labeling sucks I'm sure they're all just listed as San Pedro-Trichocereus pachanoi

I've got the same semi monstrose pachanoi via lowe's $20 for it and a PC pach in the same pot

Sorry kitesurfer I've promised these all out pending trades. I'll post if/when I get my hands on some more

PM'd

I'd leave it labelled as macrogonus unless you are of the school of thought that macrogonus is just a Peruvianus.

Got quite a few crosses of this guy thanks to mushroomman. Hopefully some of these genetics shine through. Such a beaut!

The native Americans used to take the blooms and cup them in their hands and inhales the fragrance. It's said that it had a euphoria and intoxicating effect. Never tried it myself but always found it interesting

No not poisonous

Very long lived too. There's a 200+ yr old specimen close to me :D

Looks like Magnolia grandiflora to me. Southern magnolia, native here and the state flower. Grows to be HuGE and are beautiful specimens

Just the grafted one mate. All the rest are moving right along

Mine are always planted closely. It's a job getting them all separated but it only slows em down a bit after transplanting. I always make sure the soil is moist so the roots are a little more flexible and the soil easily shakes free of the roots.

Bryophyllum daigremontianum

Validus bit the dust tho I do have a lot of Zelly's stuff going. I'll try and get some pics up soon. Any updates on your's mushroomman?

Idunnocereus awesomeiifuckianus!

Sowed all I had. Maybe by summer/fall this year they'll be big enough to post tho

Growing some out from seed. Will try and get a couple pics of the seedlings up later on. Here's what SS listing has to say about em Trichocereus sp. BK09509.2 "Huachuma de Chavin" Candelabra stems to 10'. Stems to 4" diameter, dark green epidermis, new growth blushed blue. 57 radial spines, the downward facing ones up to 1.5" long. 1 central spine to 2.5". New spines yellow to red-brown in color. Looks intermediate to T. pachanoi and cuzcoensis. Growing on rocky cliffs, western slopes above the north end of the modern town and ancient ruins of Chavin de Huantar, 10,600', Ancash Dept., Peru.

Yeah took almost two weeks to get them so they've been without for about 3 weeks now.

Got these guys about a week ago. In a windowsill getting diffused bright light. When do I need to water these guys? Was tempted to today as they are starting to look like they need a drink.....

I put them in a ziplock with some silica to suck up the moisture. In the fridge indefinitely........
