sapito Posted August 14, 2011 (edited) Heres just a few pics of some of my cacti that i see as a bit unique to the rest of my other or just cool looking. I havent kept up to date with what cacti people have so they may not be that interesting in comparison to others. A sexy looking peruvy Not sure on the ID of this but i find the long/short spine mix interesting. The second photo is the pup from the same plant. A scop x bridg from herbalistics. You cant see in the pic but its at least 20cms phat (which could be totally normal). Cuzco mamacita And 2 bruce tips getting funky Hopefully that interests someone Edited August 14, 2011 by sapito Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CβL Posted August 14, 2011 Thanks for the pictures. The first few peruvianus seem quite interesting indeed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cactuscarl Posted August 14, 2011 Very nice they look super healthy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tripsis Posted August 14, 2011 Wow, that scopulicola x bridgesii looks remarkably like the PC pachanoi! Looks like you have a nice garden going there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sapito Posted August 14, 2011 Wow, that scopulicola x bridgesii looks remarkably like the PC pachanoi! yeah if it wasnt for the thickness it might be hard to differentiate the two. Its only about 1.5mtrs so time will tell how it matures. Would love to see the same cross in other climates if people have any pics Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tripsis Posted August 14, 2011 I think it definitely lends credibility to the hypothesis that the PC pach has bridgesii in it. Would be good to see the photos of the same cross in different climates to compare. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
incognito Posted August 14, 2011 the scop hybrid looks exactly like mine that i gre from herbalistic seed stock. im interested to see how tasty these will be. my bruces all seem to do the morphing tip thang as well. the top pic kinda looks like the bridgesii "mantis" clone. nice pics sapito! lush looking garden u have there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ethos Posted August 14, 2011 I have a five ribbed bridgesii that looks like the first pic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M S Smith Posted August 14, 2011 (edited) Wow, that scopulicola x bridgesii looks remarkably like the PC pachanoi! Remarkably so. I've long thought there might be some relationship between the PC and these two Bolivian species, especially when you stop to consider the similarities between the PC "pachanot" and T. riomizquensis. Additionally, T. riomizquensis comes from central Bolivia and the Department of Cochabamba near the Rio Mizque (southeast Cochabamba), and is situated between the T. scopulicola of O'Connor Province in the south, and the T. bridgesii of the La Paz region in the north. I lean toward thinking the T. riomizquensis and the PC "pachanot" are variations of a intermediate between T. bridgesii and T. scopulicola. ~Michael~ Edited August 14, 2011 by M S Smith 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cactusfriend Posted August 14, 2011 (edited) That cuzco is gorgeous . Have you found it to particularly resistant to predators, and not just because of its spines? Edited August 14, 2011 by cactusfriend Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoOnThen Posted August 15, 2011 My understanding is that this scop x bridg is from the same cross (herbalistic) It has fattened up since this pic was taken it is about 1 meter tall and 130mm wide at its fattest point It would be great to see this cross with bridgesii spines I love this cross and I hope to add more to my collection in the future Cheers Got Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sapito Posted August 15, 2011 I struggle so see bridgesii in the first pic You guys got any pics of the plants you say its similar to? Thanks for the pic Got, ive got about 5 from seed and all seem to be pretty similar. Hopefully someone sprouted some that look a bit different Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ethos Posted August 15, 2011 Here is my bridgesii that looks similar to your first pic, The mother bridgesii with her new baby and chilling with a spachiana cut I will try and get better pictures tomorrow in the day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
