So...Kimnach 2876D

Recommended Posts

I received this cactus 2 years ago from SS. I believe it's a Pachanoi, but have not been able to find out much about the Kimnach 2876D part. I know Myron Kimnach was an early investigator of many cacti and suculants, but...2876D??? That seems like a very specific designation to not be able to find much information about it...

 

does anyone have a trove of info about this cactus and its lineage?

He didn't have a lot of info about it, but he was very quick getting back to me with what he did have:

 

Hi,
this was a cutting originally collected by Myron Kimnach along the Cajamarca to Namora road, Cajamarca Dept., north Peru. I got it from the ISI distribution at the Huntington Botanical Garden that introduced a lot of Myron's collections.
that's all I have on it.
