spiraleyes Posted April 5, 2003 hello cactus lovers these are a few pics of a trichocereus type cacti i collected a while back. a handful of folks here believe it might be a macrogonus. does anyone see anything in the pics that might help identify it? thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr b.caapi Posted April 5, 2003 i have that very same one!! i thought it might be a t.gladiatus??? correct me if i am wrong., these things are so hard to i.d Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toby Posted April 6, 2003 i too have something like that, i think it lies somewhere in the broad stroke between macrogonus and peruvianus and is absolutely incredible for any practical applications. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nick Posted April 6, 2003 Gday, I reckon I've got that same one too. I found a huge one growing on the sand cliffs down south. It had a white flower. I think it could be a peruvian torch. I reckon it's definately a Trichocereus though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr b.caapi Posted April 6, 2003 have you sampled a bit of the flesh to check for alkaloid bitterness? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
