“Trichocereus” GenusCactiTrichocereus comes from the Greek term “thrix,” meaning “hair or hairy,” and “cereus,” meaning “candle.” It was first described by Vincenzo Riccobono in 1909 but was initially proposed by Alwin Berger in 1905. In 1974, botanist H. Friedrich concluded that Trichocereus and Echinopsis flowers were the same types. This was when Trichocereus was reclassified under the Echinopsis genus.Trichocereus Plants On Succulent CityTrichocereus BridgesiiTrichocereus GrandiflorusTrichocereus CuzcoensisTrichocereus Thelegonus (Soehrensia Spachiana)Trichocereus Pasacana (Pasacana Tree Cactus)Trichocereus Chiloensis (Echinopsis Chiloensis)Trichocereus Poco (Echinopsis Tarijensis)Trichocereus Scopulicolus (Echinopsis Scopulicola)Like this:Like Loading...RelatedTweetPinShare0 Shares ABOUT ME Richard Miller Salute everyone.
