nitrogen 2012 offspring, lol this must be one of the slowest grows of these seedlings compared to ya all! kudos to all people that offer freebie gifts and share the cactus passion, simultaneously bringing this "generous spirit" that nitrogen mentions into plant forums.

no it was some other nooker .. no idea where the seed was from, and the dude wasnt sure either..

there were lots of mandrakes that are NOT near some rock.. I guess I had to pick some as I have lots of habit picks and I mostly picked those I thought were the most beautiful and impressive but yeah its seems to like rocky habitat, thats right!

more drama shit from the "short spined peruvianus" conversation http://www.shaman-australis.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=22419&hl=%2Bshort+%2Bspined+%2Bperuvianus#entry236532

too many names, still not good taxonomic eyes around !!!

hehe this link has not a lot of pictures, but it has drama between zelly and MS Smith, and some comments.. http://www.shaman-australis.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=38591&hl=crest#entry466272 if you search the show off your freeks thread, MS Smith has posted there from time to time his aweseome pach monsterocrests and here , http://www.shaman-australis.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=38129&hl=%2Bshort+%2Bspined+%2Bperuvianus#entry460151 more drama, hehe.. but no crest... you have search a bit yrself, there are many pics here, I just cant seem to find them now..

I dont see why post #3 , pic #3 aint a terscheckii

pics are not really telling, if this is a chilensis its different than more common forms...

they look like terscheckii yeah...

Senor's look like a true variegation... (puzzled)

amazing, beautiful, one of a kind ... more pics please! any idea how old it is, and of its history? how much its worth?? at least 500 euros and that's cheap, up to 1500 - 2000 ? price could be anything , considering the size, beauty and sheer rarity of this specimen...

beautiful... I am not sure its a Pilosocereus.. why? rib count and not narrow ribs... I'd love one!

seems right for a bridgesii. the 4th pic in your 1st post seems like a peruvianoids ... or some interemediate form peruv-pach like huanu hey is the altmans TPM different from MS Smith TPM ? does it also do crests as well as doing columnar monstrosa growth?

awesome pics and specimens. Thanks for sharing! Got to love some marks on the body that indicate crucial points in the cactus history

wow this girl is popular, no? please dont send any more PMs! 3 freebies are gone, lots of people asking, might do a small sale in the near future... have to check my stock again

the second one's look like the cordobensis / super pedro scop

RIP

Berengar>> too early to tell but I think plain tacaquirensis.

What this thread's have been missing: habitat photos

^^^^ one of my A.coahuilense did that after damage to the tip.. Never seen it again in astros, they usually die when tip is fucked. Hammiltos crest, a cuzcoid tricho it seems nother ozzie crest, seemingly different than the more common pachanoi crest forms both are cuttings of the original plants I received from australia

Year-old seedlings , seed simply thown in some cactus pots with new soil. Thankfully Stenocereus marginatus crest has itself bulbous carrot roots, so removing these mandrakes from the pots was much easier than I thought, with minimal damage and without washing off the soil. Obviously, these roots are much stronger because they were in a deeper pot as opposed to a tray that dried out too fast. Some have already branched. leaves cut to prevent the root from shrieveling

I was not saying that glaucus is a species.. This is definately some peruvianus/macro form. But neither my 'Icaro' or 'los gentiles' have such tubercles in areoles. Whereas my KK336 T.glaucus and the offspring of your "T.glaucus" seed , EG, shows evident tubercloid areoles. Just saying...

fresh seed-packs for 5 euros postage paid worldwide (I am in europe) .. now live plants or live roots sale should be more analytically discussed. PM if interested

agree with azureus
