Evil Genius Posted March 10, 2011 Im pretty sure its a Terscheckii, Tripsis. Seems to be pretty old already. Its a very nice plant indeed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ferret Posted March 10, 2011 yep that was sold to me as terscheckii about 5? years ago, it was about 1/3 the size it is now. slow bastard! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lophty_tricho Posted March 10, 2011 Absolutly awesome, Man I need to get some cactus in the earth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tripsis Posted March 10, 2011 Mmm, that terscheckii makes me very keen for my tiny seedlings to get a whole lot bigger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Micromegas Posted March 10, 2011 That's cool. Always interesting to see a garden progressing since you hardly notice when you see your own garden every day that things do actually grow! And your plants are looking very nice in 2011! Out of interest were all the photos taken during the same season/month? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ferret Posted March 10, 2011 yeah I know what you mean, i only get a chance to visit this garden once a year usually, so every time i see it im pretty stoked! have the dates in post#21, first round of close-ups are from early dec 09, and heres some more i took today. anyone spot the "True Blue"? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evil Genius Posted March 10, 2011 anyone spot the "True Blue"? No but the "true black shoe". Awesome pics, ferret! I dont even know where to start. The monstrose bridgesii is fascinating! Did you grew it yourself from seed or did you get it as a cutting? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ferret Posted March 10, 2011 dammit some fucking hipster crashed my photo with his dirty stinkin volleys i may have gone overboard with the photos tonight. but where do you draw the line ? does anybody want to see every single one of the ~20 plants of the same knuthianus clone.. ok this one is cool, i ran out of space in that bed so i started planting some up my mums driveway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evil Genius Posted March 10, 2011 does anybody want to see every single one of the ~20 plants of the same knuthianus clone.. yes here. I could look at them all day long. Thanks for sharing, mate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mutant Posted March 10, 2011 these are fucking awesome, thanks for sharing what a perfect natural setting you've made for the cacti!! how are they watered? are there lots of rains there? Bravo man, definately inspiring! first row, second photo, did it come as wendermanianus? it looks like it [note: the tendency for a left-right symmetry in several peripheral spines , and some bigger, upper, curved spines ] 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Micromegas Posted March 10, 2011 Sweet. I really like number 3 on the first row for some reason but they are all nice of course. Except for knuthians! i don't want to see every single one of the ~20 knuthian clones! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tripsis Posted March 11, 2011 Wow, beautiful photos ferret! Can you give them labels? Especially #2, and second and third last ones and the one you posted separately in your next post. Really good job man. You're very lucky to have such a piece of land to plant out like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ferret Posted March 11, 2011 Wow, beautiful photos ferret! Can you give them labels? Especially #2, and second and third last ones and the one you posted separately in your next post. Really good job man. You're very lucky to have such a piece of land to plant out like that. i thought you'd like #2 but I can't remember what it was sold to me as. prier may be able to help id that one, im pretty sure I got it from the nursery he works at. unfortunately i can't really put labels to alot of these, most were acquired simply as "Trichocereus sp.", and some of the glaucus peruvianoids are seed grown/degrafted, a couple interestingly from SAB "pachanoi" seed! alas i lost the labels to the seed grown ones long ago.. 2nd last is a bridgesii of some description, that branch looks like it started off as a flower 'bud' and changed its mind and changed into a branch?? you can also see it in the background of #3 3rd last is another bridgesii type thing, heres some of its history. looked pretty unique from the getgo. http://www.shaman-australis.com.au/gallery2/albums/userpics/normal_Tbfatter.jpg http://www.shaman-australis.com/forum/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=3342 http://www.shaman-australis.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=15757&view=findpost&p=158446 the only other one that came (and stayed) labelled is #4, SAB sourced KK339.

ferret Posted March 11, 2011 oh yea, the one i posted seperately in the next post im pretty sure is a cut off this baby http://www.shaman-australis.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=9393&view=findpost&p=82682 4 ribber all the way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tripsis Posted March 11, 2011 I can sympathise with the lack of labelling. Would be especially difficult once they're all in the ground. Ceases to really matter anyway. if you like them, you like them. That second last one is bizarre! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CβL Posted March 11, 2011 That is a beautiful collection mate! I hope you're extremely proud. Have you sown any hybrids from there yet? It'd be interesting to see what comes out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Merkaba Posted March 24, 2011 (edited) A few more years and some bastard will be collecting the fallen limbs,thirty years on and they will remain as a testament to some unknown hippy. hahA ^ Nice garden, I was sorta wondering if they were gonna grow thin in the conditions (from the first photograph) then I scrolled down and noticed there were updates. Seems like they're growing healthy and plump :D good work. Seems like they're getting their nutes :D Edited March 24, 2011 by Merkaba Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
