Mysterious Yard nursery bed, California
The yard · Discovery Bay, California

Trichocereus cacti, cut and rooted, grown outdoors in Discovery Bay and by growers I trust.

The first picture of a listing is what ships. My own are photographed here in the yard.

Mostly the ones people call San Pedro (T. pachanoi), Peruvian torch (T. peruvianus) and Bolivian torch (T. bridgesii).

The SS02 mother plant seen from the front: old, thick, scarred stems with young green pups growing from them, in a garden bed.
