XipeTotec Posted February 28, 2007 dunno dude ive given up tryin to ID trichos.. oh, ok, I was trying to ID a cutting that I got (same as that) i came to the conclusion that it was macrogonus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlackDragon Posted February 28, 2007 Wonderfull!! Thanks for sharing ferret!! Love that one that looks paralensis/bridge with the long spines I would say that is a macro shroomytoonos, but some may think differently, maybe a ss peru. That flower is just beautiful, almost like an orchid! Top shots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

strangebrew Posted February 28, 2007 Wow, fooking incredible! Terscheckii & pasacana as well! Are pics 1,2,6,8 & 9 of the same plant or clone? 1 & 2 I've seen before and called macrogonus. If it's the same it's soon prostrate, is a major ribshifter and has a peculiar segmenting which I've only seen in pictures of Huntington Gardens macrogonus, so it could well have originated from there but I have never seen anything like pic 1. That forked mutation is absolutely amazing! 3 I think is crested cereus. 7 is beautiful too, I've seen that clone before but got no idea what it is. Looks worthy though I must say. Great find ferret!

Ace Posted February 28, 2007 Holey bloody dooley! What a great collection! I really like the crestate form - I'd think a cereus too (though before I got the big pic I would have said Myrtillocactus...) Some absolute stunners there champ - hope you are lucky enough to score some cuttings, or possibly some pollen/seeds! Thanks for sharing man - you've made my day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great find ferret! 1 & 2 are the same plant and yeah it has a prostrate habit, i remeber seeing some of your pics from country SA which look the same, quite a weird one hey.. 6, 8 & 9 are all seperate plants from a different garden. yep 3 is a crested branch off a normal cereus, i dont think 10 is a tricho either but looks awesome anyway.. im pretty sure the owner called #7 T. rosei, but i remember reading in trouts notes that it was a synonym for peruvianus.. BD thinks its close to pallarensis perhaps.. cheers fellas, ive got about 20 more pics to go so keep checkin back in! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BlackDragon Posted February 28, 2007 (edited) I appologise, my spelling for #7 was incorrect. Its actually t.pallarensis, or what i believe may be t.pallarensis. Check out description on trouts page t.pallarensis quick link to t.pallarensis photo similar looking.. Bd. Edited February 28, 2007 by BlackDragon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bob-bob Posted February 28, 2007 Never thought I'd see the day when photos of cacti would do it for me...... and they do... Thanks for sharing the awesome pics. Do they belong to you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

strangebrew Posted February 28, 2007 strangebrew do you think that flower with the bees is a terscheckii? It seems a bit odd to me to be so close to the ground but you're in a better position to know. Was it from a plant like the pic before and look like those flowers? . I'd seen the terscheckii in the local botanic gardens flower from about halfway up before. That was before some total f*cking arsehole decided to cut it in half for his own collection. BTW are these recent photos? Just seems a bit late for all the flowering. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just seems a bit late for all the flowering. similar looking plant from memory but now that i look at the pics the flowers seem quite differnt.. not that recent, most of these pics are from december... on with the slide show then hey. first two are the same plant, one of the most fragrant trichos ive come across. i think the one on the far right in the second column is a Borzicactus... second last is a yellow flowered huascha, the pink flower is Echinopsis seminuda..

Ace Posted February 28, 2007 Massive fan of the bridgesii and the one directly above the pink flower!! All of them are just so damn gorgeous tho! Cant wait till my garden is as plentiful as this one! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Micromegas Posted March 1, 2007 Wow! My eyes nearly popped out of my head! Great photos Ferret. I have photo in "Cacti and Succulents" which looks like the one above the pink flower, labelled T. Tephracanthus. Inspiring stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
