0 paradox Posted June 19, 2009 i'd say the top on is probably peruvianus, but it's hard to tell at that age....could be bridgesii second one, i put my money on it being bridgesii Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Chiral Posted June 19, 2009 Bridgesii....both I'd say...I went out to their nursery some time ago and bought a couple of those exact cactus...they are better labeled out at the nursery...$3.50 each when you to the nursery. H. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 bit Posted June 20, 2009 Rib structure of a young bridge, spination of peruvianus.... who knows how hamiltons breed their seeds? Hybrids imo, but very nice plants all the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 mac Posted June 20, 2009 (edited) ok ill have a stab at this id to see how far off i am even though its hard with young plants from what i have learned here the past 6-7 months @ sab i would say the first one could in fact be peruvian, it reminds me of pics of KK242 ? Second defo looks more Bridgesii than the first one, im mainly going from the new spine growth & the resemblance to the new growth on my Eileen that's of similar size a touch larger maybe ?
