Cacti pictures.

I don't have much to show at the moment since I'm in the process of a huge grafting project, but here are some interesting ones...
This is one of my Trichocereus Bridgesii. It's my favorite Trichocereus Bridgesii since it's so healthy and vigorous.
Here's a Trichocereus Bridgesii Monstrosus clone A aka penis cactus.
These are a couple mutant san pedro cuttings that I am trading out. On the left is the Cristate Clone A and on the right in the Cristate Clone B.
I'm in the process of grafting these at the moment.
This is a Trichocereus Bridgesii Cristate I have a few of these, but this one has a pup coming out that appears to look like a normal pup. I'm curious to see what it will look like. Also there is some growth that appears to be like the Monstrosus clone A.
This is a Trichocereus Pachanoi Monstrosus Clone A (Stock) and a Trichocereus Bridgesii Monstrosus Clone B (Graft). This is one of my cleanest grafts that I have done. The pups came up after the graft. One they are established I am going to remove the stump and replant it and let the two pups grow out.
I'll post some more some time when I see anything worth showing...

Mine aren't quite as big as yours! But they are much cuter . Ariocarpus Fissuratus: A graft: Some little pedros: Two peyotes, the smaller one seed grown, the larger one bought for 99p at the Eden project in Cornwall: 50 little peyotes: (Just got a new camera, wanted to play with it. I need the practice! )

A pachanoi, which I've had since it was about 5" tall (several years):
And you may notice, on the little pup at the top...
A little peyote graft. I did it a few days ago, it's just started showing signs of growth .

Here's the kids
Most of these are T.Pachanoi with the exception of two that are supposed to be T.Peruvianus. The spines on the two Peruvianus' are rather short though.
All but the two largest came from five 12" cuttings of T. Pachanoi and one 18" T.Peruvianus cutting that I bought two years ago. Some pieces are missing .
Trichocereus Huascha
And my cute little Huascha pups
Tricocereus Spachianus
This one worries me. I got it from the nursury this way. One side seems to be dying. Also the new growth is coming on skinny.

The corking is okay. My T. spachianus plants have had more of a tendency to cork than my other cacti.
The skinny growth is a result of insufficient light given the amount of moisture the plant was given. Even if conditions improve, growth will continue to be skinny. You can lop the top off when the plant is actively in the growing season.

Has anyone else noticed spachianus growing much slower than similar sized pachanois? Or is it just me?

Spachianus seems to grow slower than pachanoi.
But I still think it's great.
Maybe some day my three cuttings will flower. The flowers are quite showy.
