Pilosocereus glaucescens, Pachycereus pringlei and Hildewinteria aureispina?

Post by Mrs.Green »

The first one who I guess could be Pilosocereus glaucescens I have had for years. Last year the growt point died back. After a couple of beheadings, the die-back seems to have stopped.


The middle cactus, could this be H. aureispinia /Cleistocactus winterii? The longest stem is about 20 cm long.

Third; Pachycereus pringlei or I am way off? A bit more ‘hairy’ than the other pics I have seen. Small plants, the highest one 10 cm.

The P.gounelli seems to be an interesting species..especially in these days when the obesity rate skyrockets.. :P
