Question

I found this at work, it seems to be different from the PC pachanoi we also carry and seems to go 'limp' when it gets really hot. At least I have found a couple pieces that have done this. I found that it resembles my Trichocereus Torres & Torres from SS but if anyone has any idea I would love some help. I was also thinking maybe a tricho X echinopsis hybrid but not sure and there doesn't seem to be a tag in any of them.

i tried digging thru my internet history but cant find it ... im sure I saw this on a german cactus forum or something similar to it with more spines being called a trichocereus "snake cactus"

I think I recall seeing a trichocereus by the identification " Arbicola" (sp.?) that does a similar fall down & grow back upwards thing but I'm not too sure with what label best fits your cactus , those spines look pretty white & fuzzy IMO. Very cool :)

Awesome looking plant. Looks like pachanoi, but a bit off. Not really sure what to think other than I want a cutting. Haha.

Looks like an Echinocereus, maybe E. scheeri subsp. gentryi.

Yes, Michael´s right. This is an Echinocereus. And they are great for making Echinocereus hybrids.

Aboricola is another hanging Basket Cactus but has a different spination.
