Trichocereus
Pachanoi - San Pedro
Cactus is native to the high
Andes. The San Pedro Cactus is a
very hardy and easy to grow
columnar cactus, often growing a
foot per year and reaching heights
of over 15 feet (40 feet has been
recorded). San Pedro Cactus is
ribbed, with usually 6 to 8 ribs. San
Pedro Cactus is a branching cactus
and often has many side arms.
San Pedro Cactus
(Trichocereus
Pachanoi)
the most
common and well known of
the Trichocereus. It was named
after Saint Peter supposedly
because it was, like Peter, thought
to hold the keys to heaven.
Trichocereus Pachanoi has been
known and used ceremonialy for
over 3000 years and there is
evidence to suggest cultivation of
Trichocerus Pachanoi in Peru from
2200 B. C.
We now have San
Pedro Cactus Crest cuttings. These
Trichocereus Pachanoi crests are
about 6-inches tall.
Crest or "cristate" San Pedros are
rare and special. Looking, like
brains, the growing point is
generally ridge-like instead of
circular. The only way to multiply
this cactus is by dividing the main
crest in smaller pieces that can be
rooted.
