Cactus Unboxing: Pach x Echinopsis subdenudata

Here's an unboxing video of a really nice marketplace find I came across...a hybrid between Trichocereus pachanoi and Echinopsis subdenudata. There is so much potential for breeding with this one!

I tried to pollinate Subdenudata with Pachanoi with no luck, but maybe next time! I love the way that cutting looks! Sooo perfect, man!

It's much more difficult to pollinate long tube Echinopsis like Subdenudata with pollen from short tube species like Pachanoi. The pollen just isn't ideal for this kind of tube, so you have a much higher failure rate than the reverse cross, Pachanoi x Subdenudata. But keep trying! It's not impossible, you just have a higher failure rate. Got a few fruits on Subdenudata with Trichocereus pollen, but you need like ten attempts for every successful pollination.

@@Cactusjerk Thank you, We will just be less gentle with her next time! LOL!

That's odd. I have a subdenudata compacta LOADED with pups (and 3 more coming when a certain lazy woman sends them). They're quite small. I was surprised that the spines come away with the plant. Never seen a cacti detach spines like that.
