Post by PhiloCacti »

A few days ago I accidentally broke a big piece of one of my tbm A crest.

Interesting, how will it develop?

I really don't know as this would be my first Trichocereus to flower for me.

A few years back, kadakuda had the same bridgesii crest clone produce flower buds but they never bloomed.

I grafted this piece in hopes that grafting will help with the blooming process.

Does anyone know the time it takes for a Trichocereus flower to bloom?
