Re: what cactus can i pollinate with?
Only plants of the same species or genus can cross pollinate, so another Peniocereus serpentines or some other Peniocereus. It might be self fertile but I don't know anything about them, someone else should know!
I hope this helps!

Re: what cactus can i pollinate with?
you could try crossing with any other cactus species you might have flowering at the same time. Intergeneric hybrids aren't impossible (xFerobergia for example), so you could give it a go, just be sure to make a record of what you've crossed it with. Cereus species or Wilcoxia-type Echinocereus might be the most likely to take, but it's hard to say. Of course, crossing with any other Peniocereus is likely to be more successful.
