Hi everyone!
I just bought a cactus at a plant store there was no
name written anywhere neither knew the store owner
its name.
could you recognize this cactus and tell me its name
and family it belongs to?
my guess is that it may belong to the trichocereus family,
and maybe it is a trichocereus peruvianus?

Your guess appears to be correct.

That's a nice looking plant!

thank you for your answers!
after seeing pictures it is now obvious to me.
sad fact realizing it is not a peruvianus but it is
a very nice cacti species though "royal blue"
