Cactus Identification
    #19139727 - 11/15/13 05:14 AM (10 years, 2 months ago)

Hi guys
Today i went to the garden store and i bought this pretty cactus
im not sure of what it is , but it would be very nice if it has mescaline on it... hoping for a Peruvian Torch
Ok, there are things that didn't match (this color fading from green to bluish green and those long spines)It has the right amount of ribs (8,9) But although i had doubts i bought anyway cause it costed 2,5 euros
Now...what it is? and can someone tell me the approximatively age ?

I don't think that's a trichocereus looks like a pilocereus species to me, someone whos more awake will know

It's an Azureocereus hertlingianus, a very beautiful blue columnar. As for its' age... no idea. :smile:

Pictures are kinda bad, hard to say properly.. My self, I don't rule out chance you have trichocereus.

Even ribs look like they aren't trichocereus, I have still seen many different trichocereus anyway.. Your picture bring to my mind two very different trichocereus plants I have obtained some time ago. Very wavy ribs and spine amount are only 4-6 spines per aerole. I was think to say it's not ruled out your plants are not trichocereus cause of ribs or so.. But please give proper pictures for ID.

I have this appearance of two trichocereus in my collection:

These are sold as Peruvian Torch. Possible cuzco hybrids. I don't know, spine amount and formation with wavy ribs confuse me. One information I have got thee can be t. peruvianus v. tarma. But I just don't know, I wanted to show you how wavy ribs trichocereus (and it's hybrids) can have.

Anyway, could be very helpful if you can take proper pictures, your pictures are not accurate enough and they are just too blurry to see growth tip and so on.

Would be nice if you can take pictures not so blurry. I see some features of trichocereus in your plants but anyway, as I said blurry images is not so easy to make accurate ID.

Do your plants have very strong relatively straight spines? Very hard to say, growth tip picture is not accurate. I see still from one picture very much of similarities to trichocereus seedlings but cannot say what is the exact species.. Or are they even trichocereus...

Anyway, there are around trichocereus plants with similar rib formation than your plants. And possibility you have hybridized trichocereus seedlings are there anyway..

Take better pics from growth tip so it can clear ID lots.
