Teotzlcoatl Posted July 7, 2008 (edited) What is this cactus? Looks like Trichocereus to me...? It's about 12-14 inchs high and 3-4+ inchs wide... I thought it might be Trichocereus terscheckii, I payed $7 dollors for it... Edited July 9, 2008 by Teotz' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 Teotzlcoatl Posted July 8, 2008 (edited) Can anybody confirm that for me? Edited July 13, 2008 by Teotz' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 M S Smith Posted July 10, 2008 I see it more fitting in the T. candicans/psuedocandicans group which itself can be quite varied. I won't quickly say it was T. terscheckii. ~Michael~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Teotzlcoatl Posted July 10, 2008 (edited) Thanks so much for your input Mr.Smith! If you were going to put a lable in the pot... what would you write on it? Trichocereus hybrid? Edited July 13, 2008 by Teotz' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Teotzlcoatl Posted July 17, 2008 Does look pretty gnarly!!! Anybody esle? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 planthelper Posted July 17, 2008 the second latin name always starts of with minor cases, so it's not Trichocereus Gnarly, but Trichocereus gnarly. i am not certain but the y ending has to be latinised to ii. and than we have to use the new name, echinopsis! so it's echinopsis gnarlii, which might become as famous as dragibus curiosa!!
