NZ Trichocereus Clones

Recommended Posts

I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread that all the NZ members could list their Trichocereus clones/species in.

Hopefully down the line when we have as many clones as you Ozzies do it will help stop things getting named twice.

I will start off with some recent additions from Coromandel Cacti. I will take photos of my other clones when it's day light.

(sorry bout pic quality, I will replace these photos when I borrow my partners SLR)

Trichocereus species #4171

Yup they are all CC plants. He said the T. pachanoi that they sell was selected from hundereds of seed grown plants for its vigour, glaucousness and width.

nice scores centipede,the wavy S shape ribs on the bridgesii pic makes me wonder if he mixed up the labels on the bridgesii and the super spiney?

Nah all the bridgesii looked like that. Pity there aren't photos of the mother plant on their website. Perhaps it is cuzco x bridge.

San P you should post some photos of your Trichos in here.

some more cacti

I have some pretty distinctive plants too, but I'm unsure if they're within variability bounds - or if they are distinctive.

I also am iffy about that bridgesii. I will also be able to take photos of C.C.'s cuzcoensis (clearly not a pure-bred) at some stage soon. Will post that here. :]

I think this one: http://www.shaman-australis.com/forum/uploads_gallery/1301368879/med_gallery_6263_256_460.jpg is actually the one I now have in my possession :) Where did you get that huasca is synonymous with pecheretianus?

My Trichocereus Pachanoi 'NZ Yowie'. Apparently quite delicious to snails. -_-

My Trichocereus Peruvianus clone. The areoles are normally grey, but are wet.

If there's any in my albums that are distinctive, I'll put them here as well.

Alright, I don't know if this was obvious, but I felt it warranted discussing here anyway. After looking at quite a few large specimens (decades old) Trichocereus pachanoi plants, and reading the botancial descriptions (namely that as they age, they become less glaucous, and more dark green)... and looking at the 'Trichocereus Pachanoi' from Martin, which are unbelievably glaucous, I have "decided" that those Trichocereus pachanoi are actually hybrids with peruvianus (most likely progenitor).

What does everyone else think?

I thought similar when I first saw them, they are so blue.

I asked about the clones history and was told that it was picked from quite a few seedlings for it's glaucous..ness.

Very nice love those crests the last one looks like a Peru crest I've seen on ebay. What's the weird spineless thing in the background of the first crest?

Stunning plants, been a while since I seen em, need to come out that way some time.

The top two are both "Martin" right? I love that clone.

The third one down that you have as a peruvianus I would call a cuzcoensis, what with the downward pointing spines and all.

The front bridgesii in that group planting is great! Maybe it's a hybrid, it looks faaat.

Is the four ribbed one from me originally?

Short spines tersheckii is interesting too, I believe Bluntmuffin has the same plant.

Edit: were those guys from CC in the background of the first pic, second post sold to you as bridgesii? I got the same clone labelled as such.

Also good to see that you found out that crest is T. thelegonus, looks identical to pics on google

Awesome plants bog! I really think you've got some awesome ones going. :)

Also, I'm not so sure that two downward spines is a cuzcoensis trait at all. I reckon it's just a hybrid trait. It's just a feeling though, I don't have that much evidence.

pretty easy. San p kindly offered to send them, as he read me saying greece is pretty easy on packet opening and plant import, and I said "fuck yeah , sure", he did sent 'em, I rooted them and here they are. :)
