Description
Trichocereus Bridgesii "Jiimz Strong Spine" cactus specimen. Two options, either a cutting or potted available. These Bridgesiis are named "Strong Spines" per their distictive and consistently thick grouping of spines. Spine counts tend to range from 3-5. Great strain of Bridgesii, they grow thick and tend to have a rounder/fuller head. Even here in southern California though, these guys can still develop various viral and fungal issues that tend to be common amongst Bridgesii. Humidity, excessive moisture, damage, and stress can all trigger symptoms. At our nursery, 99% of the time they will naturally heal, with the black area turning to a regular cactus scar color over a few months. Many collectors across the country where they have to control their growing environment and season may use various anyi fungal/viral treatments. On very rare occasions we will take a knife to an area that is spreading/not healing and cut damaged tissue away and allow air movement and sun to help with healing. Spots can also occur via shipping, we recommend being patient and allowing time to naturally heal vs panicking! Potted specimens will ship in their 1 gallon containers and will average between 10-12", sometimes taller per season. These are pretty specimens, but not show winners, they will likely have some scars and marks etc as just shared.

Handle with CARE and please see our FAQ for basic care info.
**Cactus are not perfect, they may have small flaws, we try and photograph all sides of a cactus including any flaws that catch our attention, but please do not expect every spine to be perfect, these are growing cactus and like people, they have character!

I never make reviews but something about this company I just had to. There’s a personal touch to how Darren does business that shows he’s in it for the right reasons. Any question you have he is always there to answer and make you feel comfortable especially being a new gardener. The cacti were healthy, great, and arrived right on time but the customer service and passion were next level. I hope do be doing business with The Succulent Source for a long time. And on top of that I got not one but 4 extra cacti with my purchase!
The Cacti's arrived exactly as described, and always safely packaged. TSS has the best selection of unique cacti's, they're truly beautiful!!
This was my sixth order and I'm sure I'll be back for more. 😁
This Sun Goddess was huge! Always the best plants and fast service! Not my first order and won’t be my last.
Never in my life have I left reviews for a product but I leave 5 stars for succulent source on every purchase. They are truly and amazing family that are awesome at growing succulents too. I’ve purchased many plants and every time I have had a positive experience.
