Zedo Posted April 28, 2016 Hi all. Years ago... Like 10 I think. I bought heaps of seeds of all sorts of things off here at SAB. But some didn't grow etc and I moved and lost some etc. anyways ive got this one tall cacti I grew from seed. I think it was the only one to survive. But it's going glorious and has new heads coming out the bottom. Can anyone ID it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zedo Posted April 28, 2016 (edited) Thankyou. It this a pedro or Peruvian torch? Only cause their the only seeds I've ever bought but I didn't think it was one of them Edited April 28, 2016 by Zedo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berengar Posted April 28, 2016 Neither. It's Trichocereus cuzcoensis. Back in the day it was commonly mislabeled as peruvianus and sometimes as pachanoi, so you could have bought it as either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zedo Posted April 28, 2016 Kk242? What's that refer to? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evil Genius Posted April 28, 2016 It´s a collection number from Matucana. KK stands for Karel Knize who is the person who sold those in large quantities in the past 30 years. It´s one of the most common cuzcoensis types. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zedo Posted April 28, 2016 Years ahead dude. I've wanted every cacti since I was like 13. I left most of my collection with family when I moved. But it's time to get them all again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
