Trichocereus Ornamental Cactus Starter Kit and 4"

Hey Trichocereus brand newbies, we're offering a Starter Cutting Kit, 6 Trich. top cuts, 6 containers, and a bag of soil. Trichs will be a Pachanoi, Bridgesii, Bridgesii Monstrose aka Penis Cactus, Cuzcoensis, Spacianus, and a PC (Popular Cultivar/pretty common). Based on stock available, we may need to sub in something different as we have multiple types of Bridgesii and Cuzcoensis etc.  All you need to do is put the dirt in the container, add the cutting, and water in a few weeks. Ask the community for help, and you're official. A good gift idea too...

Landscapers:  Contact us directly if you need larger quantities for your designing needs,  check out www.houzz.com to see how other designers, landscapers and home owners are using columnar trichocereus cactus in their landscaping!

Trichocereus cactus is a fast-growing columnar cactus native to the Andes Mountains of Peru between 2000-3000 m in altitude. It is also found in Bolivia, Chile and Ecuador, and it is cultivated in other parts of the world. 

They also produce the most giant, beautiful and fragrant flowers imaginable, the reason I began collecting them many years ago! Absolutely stunning and equal to any flower out there!

The grouping pictures show a variety of Trichs growing among some of it’s cousins, a few of which we also sell. They are awesome plants, whether in pots or planted as landscape specimens.

**We propagate our cactus weekly during the spring and summer so we recommend checking back as often as you'd like to see new offerings as soon as they've started rooting.   Email us if you have questions**.

 ** These are not show cacti, they may have blemishes, scars etc. as do almost all cactus unless very sheltered from others bumping them etc. They are also juveniles and what they look like right now is highly likely to change with growth and TLC!

We've been collecting different cacti and succulents for 15 plus years, lots of factors in play on growing cacti and their appearance. Natural lighting variation, soil types, watering, temps, time of year, fertilizers etc.

*** pictures also show how a cactus can have misc. scratches, scars etc. towards the base but new growth and new pups will eventually hide and lower marks.  Occasionally a tip may have some marks, these too will eventually move down the side with new growth being blemish free.
