Rev Posted May 23, 2005 def not a spach heres top down its got the same funky rib geometry going on as T some chilensis but it grows erect or prostrate and im not even sure its a trich or echinopsis anyway. i havent seen it flower Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

teonanacatl Posted May 24, 2005 sweet :D . the more i look the more i think trich chiliensis, but youve got the best view. i dont think the ribs look borzi enough but then i can see then up close :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
faslimy Posted May 24, 2005 I would agree. The plant in my book labelled T. chiloensis looks nothing like it but others named T. chilensis on the net have the same spines and ribs structure. Seems there are many forms of this plant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
apothecary Posted May 24, 2005 Rev, yeah. I've noticed spachianus form a distinct spine pattern when you look top down... Could be a hybrid, but I see the T. chilensis resemblance while looking at columnar-cacti.org .. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
