Growing

Chalaensis

Also written as Trichocereus chalaensis

Trichocereus chalaensis. Deep notches and red spines — the red is the thing you notice first.

Read the reference entry → — what the name Chalaensis means, where it came from, and what other growers record about it.

Nothing off this one is listed at the moment. It's growing in the yard and gets cut when it's ready.

Anything marked “not recorded yet” is a fact I have not written down. I would rather leave the gap than guess at it.

Photographs

My own pictures of this plant, taken in the yard. The drawn frames are my illustrations, standing in until I have photographed the rest.
