mutant Posted November 5, 2011 pachanoi monster & crest, kada strain. i dont dare to cut it yet bridgesii found in some multistore , I call it praktiker. it tends to go 4 and even 3 rib, like shown here and it is 'black plague' positive that's what I call 'standard us bridgesii' from habit, it's my first bridgesii and second trichocereus I got to own, also black plague infected, here interestingly showing 2 x 4 rib puppies an australian clone, Tig, also a bridgesii, here are 3 shots of Tig showing a very characteristic 4 spine motive, Gunter I think had commented on that, somebody said PsychoO also does this. T.Pasacana, created by Philocacti and gifted to me, thanks a lot dude, it grows much faster than my terschecki old graft. here it is, the terschckii. It seems that this graft was fucked up in the long run. It's only a bit bigger [!] than own rooted ones from the same sowing... euro [holland] sourced scop. the same clone, planted outside, was the first tricho to flower for me this year. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mutant Posted November 5, 2011 (edited) Newcomer, peruvianus of excellent recommendations. this is definately a 'true blue' sourced from mid east My Icaros [peruvianus], bought/sown by sab. seems like he is reaching maturity any time now T.glacus kk336 , also sown by sab Yowie, NZ sourced. Pretty new in the collection, have not seen much of him 'NZ pachanoi' , same as above Perhaps my favourite cactus, Efi, its a T.taquimbalensis peruvianus, 'Los gentiles' sown by sab These were suypposed to be pachanois, but I guess they look macrogonoid peruvs, what do you think?

ballzac Posted November 6, 2011 Newcomer, peruvianus of excellent recommendations. this is definately a 'true blue' sourced from mid east As far as I can tell from the pic, that's one of the strains referred to as "Roseii". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mutant Posted November 6, 2011 (edited) thank you all for feedback, I appreciate a lot EG> yup sure there's praktiker, one of the oldest multistores, at least one of the oldest if not the oldest in my hometown. I was too surprised to see trichocerei at them. I think it was bought from a greek nursery though san p> yeah, they are fine, you're the man dude, thanks! tripsis> How old is the T. taquimbalensis? Does it grow slowly? its some 3 y.o or 3,5 , and its growing pretty fast. I cut the pup yesterday [i have slept at all and repotting and gardening for over 20 hours in a row ] and it had it own root, small but present! quarter> by 'black plague' I refer to black rot, some bacteria commo - very common- is many clones of Trichocerei. It isnt deadly normally, but it can leave lasty scars. ballzac> thanks kool to know that about 'Rosei' Why did they call it tig? whats a tig? and marcel> no, no serian rue as of yet again thank you all Edited November 6, 2011 by mutant Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
interbeing Posted November 7, 2011 Wow, very nice collection love the look of the newcomer, doesn't look like a rosei IMO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ballzac Posted November 7, 2011 (edited) Don't forget that there are two quite different strains that are commonly referred to as roseii, and even variation within those strains. Here's my roseii for comparison. I think this is roseii #1, though can't remember for sure which is which Edited November 7, 2011 by ballzac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
