I always pictured bridgesii as having long, crazy irregular spines. T. peruvianus, maybe?

I'm not good at IDing cacti though... for all I know it could be a Cereus.

M S hasn't been posting in a while. To me those spines look about as peruvianoid as they come. Could be a bit of bridgesii in the genes but i'd be leaning toward Trichocereus peruvianus.

Try give us a radial and central spine count

It doesn't look like a pedro, brigesii or peruvianus to me. Could be though, cacti grow funny sometimes. Spines are too short and regular to be bridge or peru. No way it's pedro. Probably a common variety.

I'm with faslimy on it being most like a T. peruvianus. It does seem to lack the more lengthy central though of most T. peruvianus, but otherwise spine number, thickness, and formation seem about right on, as well as the V-notch. I don't think it is a T. bridgesii as they usually have three radial spines without a central, though I have seen some with a central. It does though look a lot like a plant I once got under the name T. cuzcoensis, but which I take to be a T. peruvianus form. Here's my plant below.



Sorry I haven't been around much, I have been pursuing some other interests during the cactus dormancy.
