Genus Trichocereus Large genus of some 50–80+ species native to the Andes of Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Argentina and Chile. Recently merged with the closely related genus Echinopsis, leading to great confusion. Here we recognize Trichocereus as a distinct genus, variable in size and form; sometimes low growing multi-branching colonies, others large candelabra-like stands to imposing tree-like giants. All produce large funnel shaped flowers that are often sweetly scented. These magnificent flowers are either white and nocturnal or multi-colored and diurnal. The fruits are edible and quite delicious. Cuttings are often planted as living fences throughout South America. Flower petals and the inner flesh of most species are excellent external remedies for wounds and burns much like Aloe vera. Cut stems of some species are traditionally used to purify water. All are relatively fast growing, easy from seed and fairly cold tolerant. Increasingly popular as hardy landscape specimens. For optimal growth provide a rich well-drained soil, plenty of horizontal root room, bright light and regular water and nutrients during Spring and Summer. Trichocereus provide some of the best long lived grafting stocks. We are now involved in a long term interdisciplenary field study of the ethnobotany, distribution and taxonomy of these cacti. All BK numbers are from our wild seed accessions. Subscribe to our Rare Plant List ($5 for 4 issues) for additional offerings of specimens, rarities, and new hybrids..

These offerings present a unique situation where you can play an important role by fostering a bit of horticultural history. Undoubtedly these hybrids will give rise to exceptional and desirable new variation in stem and spine form, flower color and scent, fruit size and sweetness, hardiness, rate of growth, etc. The first name listed for the hybrids is the mother plant that bore the fruit. See elsewhere in the catalog for most individual parent plant descriptions. All seed packets contain between 30 and 70+ seed unless noted otherwise. We have wholesale quantities of many of these seeds, please inquire. Clustering Hybrid Seed The following Trichocereus hybrids have clustering or clumping growth habits, to 1–4.
