Trichocereus sp. "Pumacayan" clone from Peru

Hey guys, here´s one of the final previews from the new book. It´s a clone that originally comes from a population in Pumacayan in Peru. It´s actually a botanical clone but I felt like it deserves to be included in the book because it´s getting more and more common recently. The original clone comes from Peru and has been propagated and distributed by Aplantis for a few years and I hope it´ll find its way around the world. There´s also some seeds available of this strain and I wanna thank everyone who´s played a part in making this wonderful plant available. It´s just ridiculously beautiful and deserves to be propagated.

So yeah, get the new book through the campaign and in return you´ll get a beautiful Trichocereus book about clones, hybrids and cultivars. The book is the result of a group effort that´s been heavily supported by some of our members and the breeders in the community. It´s just an amazing thing when you have such a great community that you can make books about a subject that´s not the typical mainstream stuff. ❤️

Trichocereus bridgesii "Funkoid" Preview

Hey guys, here´s another preview from the book. This time it shows the Trichocereus bridgesii clone FUNKOID from Moonunitbotanica. The clone is very freaky and often shifts between monstrose and normal growth and is just an overall great plant to breed with. Check out the full chapter here: https://igg.me/at/trichocereus

Trichocereus bridgesii "Psycho 0" x Echinopsis new preview

What an excellent day for an Excorcism...ähm I meant a new Preview photo. This time it´s a photo showing the remarkable flower of the incredible Trichocereus bridgesii "Psycho0" x Echinopsis cross that was distributed by the SAB member PD. It´s an incredibly uncommon hybrid and looks nothing like the Psycho0 mother. The flower is as freaky as the whole plant is like and I am glad that this incredible plant was raised by Michael Stillman.

So buy the book that features all these crazy hybrids or clones here. ;) https://igg.me/at/trichocereus

Trichocereus pachanoi & spider - Preview from the new book

Hey guys, another time for a preview. This time it´s not a particular strain but a photo that´s used as a graphic in the new book. I feel like it´s just an overall great photo and I wanted to show that one too.

The campaign is coming to an end so make sure to get a copy in the link attached below. All books are limited, numbered and the lowest numbers will only be available in the campaign.

Trichocereus peruvianus ROSEI 2 - Preview

Hey guys, our campaign is slowly but steadily coming to an end and after I´ve shown a preview of the classic clone ROSEI 1 yesterday, I wanna show a similar one showing Rosei 2. Once again it´s a clone from the Fields collection, which could be one of the sister plants of Rosei 1.
Rosei is an older name for Trichocereus peruvianus that was never really accepted. These days it is no longer in use because Britton and Rose´s name Trichocereus peruvianus was the one that was picked for these plants.

So yeah, if you want your copy of the new SAN PEDRO HYBRIDS book NOW is the time. We´ll only print a very limited run and if we don´t reach our goal the run will even be more reduced. All the books are numbered and the lowest numbers will go to the people who support the campaign. Check out the link here: https://igg.me/at/trichocereus

Trichocereus peruvianus ROSEI 1 Preview from the new book

How about a new preview from the SAN PEDRO HYBRIDS book. This time it´s a classic clone from the Fields collection. It´s the Trichocereus peruvianus clone ROSEI 1. Rosei is an old name for Trichocereus peruvianus that´s been used as a synonym. However, it is no longer in use because Britton and Rose´s name Trichocereus peruvianus prevailed. Rosei is one of the most popular clones from Australia and the reason is simple....it looks amazing.

Trichocereus pachanoi x Echinopsis hybrid from Pedropark

Hey guys, hope you all have a wonderful weekend! It´s about 10:30 pm here and I felt like dropping another preview photo before I´ll head into my bed. Our campaign is about to hit the goal, but we still need these 5% to officially cross the line. It´s only 11 days until the end of the campaign and we need to reach that goal before the end. So make sure to pay us a visit at https://igg.me/at/trichocereus and grab a copy of the new Trichocereus book about hybrids, clones and cultivars.

Today´s preview shows an incredible hybrid from Pedro Park, They sourced these amazing hybrids between Trichocereus pachanoi and an unknown Echinopsis. Due to the length and location of the flower tube, it is very likely that the father was a Pseudolobivia. These are now part of Echinopsis and you can read more about this hybrid and similar hybrids in the book

European Trichocereus macrogonus clone Preview

Today´s preview shows a really cool clone that I´ve been showing a lot recently. It´s the European Trichocereus macrogonus clone that´s been around for a very long time over here. It´s one of the oldest clones associated with Trichocereus macrogonus and was distributed by German cactus sellers and nurseries. It´s one of the most beautiful Trichocereus clones I own. It is unknown where it came from, but this plant is what you often get when you buy Trichocereus macrogonus in Germany.

Trichocereus bridgesii monstrosa variegata : Preview

Hey guys, thanks to the support of this amazing community we had a pretty good day in the campaign and we´re not at 93%. A good time to show another preview. This time it´s a variegated version of the well known columnar TBM. It´s really rare that this clone variegates and it´s either a spontaneous mutation or partially variegated offspring of the standard Trichocereus bridgesii monstrosa. This plant is part of the chapter on the TBMs. Make sure to get the book with the complete chapter here. https://igg.me/at/trichocereus

Another Zelly hybrid - Trichocereus scopulicola x Trichocereus grandiflorus

Hey guys, new promo photo. Another Zelly hybrid, which is the product of a cross between Trichocereus scopulicola and a Trichocereus grandiflorus. This cross brought extraordinarily good results and so far all of these hybrids were great. Beautiful flowers and a typical columnar body. That´s a hybrid of my taste.

Trichocereus knuthianus SS03 - Sacred Succulents

Hey guys, after today we´re at 91% with 20 days to go. Time for another preview so we knock this ball out of the park.

This time the preview shows a SS03, which is one of Sacred Succulents´ clones and belongs to the species Trichocereus knuthianus. It´s a dark blue and massive Trichocereus that forms large stands. The plant was used in various hybrids, but compared to the large number of crosses with SS01 and SS02 it´s relatively rare. SS03 is a stunning Knuthianus and one of Sacred Succulent´s most interest plants.

Trichocereus scopulicola x Trichocereus grandiflorus "Zelly 6"

Today´s preview from my new book contains a photo of the incredible Trichocereus scopulicola hybrid ZELLY 6. This hybrid was bred by Misplant, who crossed a Trichocereus scopulicola with a red flowering Trichocereus grandiflorus. The outcome of that cross was incredible and brought some very beautiful flowers on a plant with the Scopulicola´s body. Of course the Grandiflorus had some influence on the body as well, but all Zelly hybrids I´ve seen were typical Scopulicola hybrids with beautiful flowers.

Another preview of CLONE ONE from Peru

Hey guys, another sick preview from the upcoming Trichocereus book. This time it´s the Aplantis clone CLONE ONE. A beautiful Trichocereus that looks unlike most other plants from the Trichocereus pachanoi complex that I´ve ever seen. The V-notches on this clone go very deep and give CLONE ONE a very unusual look. Larger plants have a very strange look and it´s just one of my favorite clones in a long time. You can get a cutting from Manuel Terra.

Trichocereus pachanoi CLONE ONE - Preview

New promo photo from upcoming book. This time it´s the incredible CLONE ONE from Aplantis.

Clone One is a Trichocereus pachanoi clone that was collected in Cajabamba in Peru in 2013. Its main characteristics are the bright green epidermis color and the rather uniquely shaped V-notches. It has 6 – 7 ribs and very short spines.

At the original site, this plant was hacked down by the previous owner and dumped beside a road. In Peru, those plants are often used as natural fencing and it is very common for the plants to be removed and thrown away at some point. In this case, it was a real case of luck that made this clone available and I am glad to have this beautiful plant in the book.
