Another cacti id please

This is a Pach right?

I recently met this old lady by chance, whos late husband used to collect cacti.

She kindly gave me about a meter length plus two pups.

I'm pretty sure its a pachanoi but it looks slightly different to others I have.

She said the mother plant was about 35 years old, the thing was massive!

Branches were breaking off as they grew into the eves of her two story house.

Unfortunately I didn't have my camera to snap a pic but will try to get back and get one, and hopefully a couple more cuts

She seemed to think it was a cereus, I'm hoping its not

Looks like a fat pach to me, definitely not a Cereus.

Would love a cutting if you would like to sell one to me.

Thanks.

Hi Tonic, Yeah I was pretty sure its was a pach, its definately a different varient to my others though.

Generally I don't sell my cacti, but when I have a few cuts of this beast established, we could possibly organise a trade

without a doubt an echinopsis pachanoi or hybrid thereof.

beautiful cacti mate, congrats!

Hi, I wasn't really wanting an established plant, rather just a cutting from the mother plant say $1 per cm [$30 for a foot cutting of a good width]. Most likely I don't have anything for trade, that is why I offered $$$, otherwise I would have offered a trade.

I think it would be worthwhile to get this form into the community.

Ultimately it is up to you but selling or trading some is for the good of the community.

Cheers.

Will shoot you a PM.

What I meant is that when I have this plant established in MY garden I might then have cuts to trade OR sell.

The motherplant is not mine so cuts are limited until I get a few going.

Fair enough.
