Bush Turkey Posted October 14, 2008 (edited) just wanted to know what species this is??? Edited October 5, 2009 by Bush_Turkey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Bush Turkey Posted September 16, 2009 Is that the one that I was saying looks like pasacana? It looks completely different, although it really wasn't that easy to see how the spination would turn out, I was just going mainly on the density it had at the top. Yeah dude its the same one. yeah was way too young to idenityfy back the, maybe now is better? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 ballzac Posted September 16, 2009 Yeah, I would say cuzcoensis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 mac Posted September 16, 2009 (edited) Yeah, I would say cuzcoensis. yeah shape & new mature spines i would also say cuzco Edited September 16, 2009 by mac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 interbeing Posted September 16, 2009 Yeah, I would say cuzcoensis. To me this looks like a plant sold on SAB, a Tricocereus/Echinopsis peruvianus gnosis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Bush Turkey Posted September 16, 2009 To me this looks like a plant sold on SAB, a Tricocereus/Echinopsis peruvianus gnosis it was bought at a shop over here about a year ago that does purchase from SAB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Teotzlcoatl Posted September 16, 2009 Looks like a Trichocereus cuzcoensis to me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 mutant Posted September 17, 2009 (edited) Maybe you could give it as much sun as you could, and force it make the most spines it can give... then you might have more accurate id.. Edited September 17, 2009 by mutant Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Xenodimensional Posted September 17, 2009 What is the fat corn-cob looking cactus in the red pot in the background (middle pic, last post with photos, page 2)? It is dead sexy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 interbeing Posted September 17, 2009 it was bought at a shop over here about a year ago that does purchase from SAB Sorry all, might have jumped the gun a little on the gnosis thing, I should blow up the pics before I throw a spanner in the works. after having a good look at my cuzco conpared to my gnosis i would lean toward cuzco.

0 interbeing Posted September 18, 2009 wats this??? IMHO I would say T.terscheckii, T.pasacana seems to grow a lot more globular conpaired to terscheckii, here are some pics of mine, both are seed grown and are about 2 years old T.terscheckii T.pasacana and here is a pic of my T.cuzcoensis from SAB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 ballzac Posted September 18, 2009 lol, A year ago you would've convinced me, but I think we've all decided it's cuzcoensis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 interbeing Posted September 18, 2009 lol, A year ago you would've convinced me, but I think we've all decided it's cuzcoensis. OK, sorry just trying to help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 ballzac Posted September 18, 2009 OK, sorry just trying to help I wasn't having a go. Sorry if I gave you that impression. Just thought it was funny is all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 bit Posted September 18, 2009 Well its about a year later and i have had people saying its all sorts (on forums and locally) as to what Trich this is? Thought ill post a few more pics to see if any one can have a stab? It's a T.peruvianus var KK242. I can take a photo of mine tomorrow if you like. T. Cuzco is a bit different. The spines are shortish on new growth, and lengthen to 3" or more on older growth. The spines are also finer. I can also take a pic of a Cuzco, but it'll require a trip to the nursery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 ballzac Posted September 18, 2009 Isn't kk242 a collection area, not a variety? And I thought the common kk242 peruvianus is pretty much accepted to be cuzcoensis now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 mac Posted September 18, 2009 (edited) Maybe you could give it as much sun as you could, and force it make the most spines it can give... then you might have more accurate id. My older T. Cuzco tip cut gets a fair amount of sun so spines are going mad & its threw out 3 new base pups during the last month & a half of winter, she is gonna be a nice clumper by the looks of it Edited September 18, 2009 by mac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 bit Posted September 18, 2009 Isn't kk242 a collection area, not a variety? And I thought the common kk242 peruvianus is pretty much accepted to be cuzcoensis now? KK242 is both, it's where the plant was collected, and therefore how it's identified. I don't think T.Cuzco is synonymous with KK242. The plants I've seen identified as T.Cuzco look quite different.

0 mac Posted September 21, 2009 I got a couple of pics of my T. Cuzcoensis tip today & i remember tst had asked if they were a clumper in another thread & mine seems to have those traits , also about turning potted cacti effecting pupping & flowering This one is pupping like mad & turned often . Im heavy handed on dynamic lifter composted cow poo & lime when i make my home made mixes but my potted plants all seem healthy enough especially my scop anyhow a few pics of the Cuzco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
