What's up with Echinopsis brevispinulosus?
Posted: Mon Mar 11, 2013 5:19 am
I just received a 2 ft long cutting of a plant that was given to me as Trichocereus (=Echinopsis) brevispinulosus.
Although it matches pics on the web of this species, it is not listed on cactiguide.com or in Anderson's The Cactus Family, even as a synonym.
It appears to also be found under E. harrissima, but that also doesn't seem to be a valid name that I can find.
It looks quite like some photos of E. lamprochlora, but I don't see any mention of that relationship.
Anyone able to give me a background on this plant?
Thanks for any info!
Cheers,
Tristan
