chilli Posted November 10, 2005 Hi, these are some of my Trichocereus, can anyone help me with some ID info? They were all sold as Pachanoi, but there are a few things that throw me off, namely: The very brown areoles and greater segmentation on this one... The brown areoles on this one... And this one looks a little like a Scop, although its pretty dehydrated, and I have seen more from the same person that are much more like a more typical Pachanoi... I'm probably betraying my gross ignorance with regards to identifying Trichocereus, but I suppose I have to start somewhere... Thanks everyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zee_werp Posted November 10, 2005 The top 2 look like pachanoi, although I agree the top one (1st cactus in your post) looks different. It resembles one I have that is a short spined peruvianus. And yep the bottom one is a scop, one of the few strains of scop we have here in NZ the real dark leathery one. As far as I know brown areoles doesn't mean its not a pach. Cause many of the plants that I know as pach can have brown areoles at first. Unless I've been horribly mistaken all this time! EDIT: My short spined peruvianus from above 2nd EDIT!! Changed this post around, was too damn confusing after the removal of those other pics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chilli Posted November 11, 2005 Oops, I posted the wrong picture for the first two... I have removed it now, so zee_werp's comment referring to the second pic is actually the first one that you can see now... How confusing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
