I would really like to see pictures of the T schickendantzii
-
not all columnars do as well as Trichocereus in a cold dark basement through winter.
-
plenty of pictures and discussion on said plant in this thread http://www.shaman-australis.com.au/cgi-bin...t=000785#000022
-
the shape and number of the spines is the most consistant thing I can see, it seems size and colour is not the best thing to go on when describing species of Trichocereus.
-
heres that plant I mentioned, which has just put out some flower buds as you can see Gymnocalycium damsii var rotundum
-
strangebrew, do you think that might be a reaction to sunburn?
-
the problem is that it's a little more complex than one definition meets all for every plant associated with a species. a key would need to describe each clone and have a universal label as unknown hybridization is rife within the genus [ 27. August 2005, 11:04: Message edited by: faslimy ]

Here is something I rescued from a nursey about 4" tall and rotting at the base /edit and heres the picture oops It looks like KK242 but not of the 'cuzcoensis' can I call it a strain? Maybe it will display more with maturity but it definatly looks different [ 23. August 2005, 11:44: Message edited by: faslimy ]

they all have resemblances in spine colour and shape to the KK242 T cuzcoensis at the top, even the T. Werdermannianus.. its genes must've spread a lot.
-
both of them are NICE
-
they're excellent
-
Not sure of this one yet, it's in the Auckland botanic gardens. heres a picture
-
I've found the vascular bundles on mature plants with multiple 'arms' to be very strong and requiring a serrated blade to cut. Once they are cut the centre softens and the ends can be cleaned up with a knife.
-
they look good together, fungi and cacti hehe :D
-
very pretty, I say it is not a griseus but Stenocereus pruinosus this is clearly the same plant however it is labeled Stenocereus griseus, I think it should probably be called pruinosus. [ 13. July 2005, 13:10: Message edited by: faslimy ]

i think it is a Pilosocereus pentaedrophorus
-
nice plant to have, hard to ID fits the descriptions for Eulychnia (ok after more looking it doesn't look much like most Eulychnia ritteri) Doesn't look like a Trichocereus either to me. [ 07. July 2005, 02:59: Message edited by: faslimy ]

Does look like a good match for T. candicans - is T. pseudocandicans the same plant or a name for a different form? The history of that plant is it was bought in a hardware type store labled as Trichocereus sp. [ 29. June 2005, 00:46: Message edited by: faslimy ]

I have the exact plant which no one could ID for me some time ago when I first posted it.
-
Many Notocactus are self fertile
-
I started top watering myself too, the top layer of soil wasn't soaking up the water efficiently anymore. I switched them to a 250W MH because they were still getting a bit on the thin side.
-
Are you only bottom watering still?
-
The short spine peruvianus in my collection is very potent, the material tested was from a mature specimen however.
-
It probably has no relation at all to the seed they are selling. Looks more like a Stenocereus to me but I've never seen it before.
