The Cereus peruvianus is a Trichocereus, no doubt.

What a great glasshouse. Thats one of the taller specimens I've seen of T. bridgesii, it looks great! Maybe they intentionally mislabelled it to deter theft. Great to see the tricho's being represented in the collection though. That knuthianus does look awesome, I've never heard of it before. Looks like someone's already taken a fat cutting off it!

Great pics, looking good.

With the bridgesii, there are 2 of the same size specimens side by side aren't there? Do you have any more pics of it?

Monstrose bridg is quite nice too, pretty scarred up from memory?
