CβL Posted October 28, 2011 (edited) I reckon that just-posted T. cuzcoensis is a T. chiloensis centipede. But anyway, farking mint! I really like that Blenheim peruvianus. The next step is for us to start crossing these together. Then we'll have some really envious plants. :D Edited October 28, 2011 by βluntmuffin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yar that should be sweet, sadly I've only had flowers on pachanoi so far Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CβL Posted October 28, 2011 I had one set of Peruvianus flowers - but I didn't pollinate properly, so no seed was set. But I'm getting a camelhair brush or so on Sunday, and gonna practice with Mammillaria (which I've had flowers for 6 months constantly now hahaha). So hopefully by the time I get Martin's Peruvianus to flower, I will be practiced enough to be able to cross it with something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bit Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) Looks like corro's big "bridgesii" is headed down country in pieces, which is a shame. I wasn't allowed to bid any higher on it Is trademe user 'warmapplepie' on this forum? Edited October 30, 2011 by bit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tripsis Posted October 30, 2011 You have some fucking gorgeous plants centipede! I'm really envious how prevalent T. werdermannianus, T. taquimbalensis and T. tacaquirensis are in NZ. I never come across them here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wasn't allowed to bid any higher on it Is trademe user 'warmapplepie' on this forum? Haha I wondered why you stopped bidding at that price.. Shoulda told ya missus you could make the money back selling seedlings Def skeptical about the ID on that one tho.. Don't think applepie is a member, I believe they are West Coast and I don't think we have anyone from out that way. Would love to be proven wrong. Maybe someone that's bought from them before could invite them? You have some fucking gorgeous plants centipede! I'm really envious how prevalent T. werdermannianus, T. taquimbalensis and T. tacaquirensis are in NZ. I never come across them here. Cheers bro! I only know of one person and one nursery who have grown those species. Gotta love them fatties. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's definitely not pure bridgesii, but it's still an nice looker, and with a bit of luck (and maybe some bap) maybe I can get a 9-point plant growing from the stump Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CβL Posted December 11, 2011 (edited) Trichocereus sp. 'CC Cuzcoensis' My Trichocereus Peruvianus 'Martin' plant. Trichocereus Pachanoi clone. Perhaps it has some peruvianus genes, as there are medium length centrals in a vertical line. I saw an old thread where zee_werp (a NZ member) post a picture of what is almost certainly the exact same plant, as a macrogonus: http://www.shaman-australis.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=9264 This particular plant came from a guy in Auckland who's had it for at least a decade. It's definitely more pachanoi than it would be macrogonus though (by at least 75%). There's another (mildly out of focus) shot in the album. Trichocereus sp. 'CC Bridgesii' Trichocereus peruvianus - MB clone My clone of Peruvianus. This one is also being pushed to flowering, so has not got much glaucous bloom as a result.

bℓσωηG Posted December 25, 2011 (edited) How difficult is it to import living cacti into New Zealand ?? Would it be as much of a stuff around as importing to Australia or not as difficult ? Does Coromandel Cacti import live cuttings or only seed from overseas? Edited December 25, 2011 by bℓσωηG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bit Posted December 25, 2011 heres a tersh and werdermaniuanus from you Quentin happy as Heya, do you have an ID for the cutting bottom left? Does it flower with huge white flowers with purple/pinky shells like this? I've been calling mine Spachanius based on a single similar pic found on the net: http://www.cactus-art.biz/schede/TRICHOCEREUS/Trichocereus_spachianus/Trichocereus_spachianus/Trichocereus_spachianus.htm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does Coromandel Cacti import live cuttings or only seed from overseas? I would say it's almost as difficult as importing to Australia, they have to stay in a quarrantine nursery for 3 months or something http://www.biosecuri.../plants/nursery Edited December 25, 2011 by centipede Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bℓσωηG Posted December 26, 2011 Yeah i looked at their website centipede and it says plants have to be actively growing whilst in quarantine for three months, or longer if slow growing . Of course any cacti cuttings will NOT be actively growing so this could make quarantining excessively expensive , what a shame Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
