Scopulicola Information

Trichocereus scopulicola or “Scops” is another species of fast growing columnar cacti that are originally from Bolivia. They are closely related to the San Pedro cactus and can look similar. The main difference between Scop and San Pedro are

• Scops are typically a lighter green color than San Pedro
• Scops typically have very small spines and areoles or can even be completely spineless
• Scops often grow thicker than San Pedro
• Scops commonly do not produce many offsets, whereas San Pedros tend to grow bushy with age

Super Pedro Information

Super Pedro is a very popular Scopulicola cultivar among Trichocereus growers. While the exact lineage is unknown, it is believed that it’s some sort of Pachanoi x Scop hybrid. Some would even go as far to say that it has some T. Cordobensis in it’s lineage, but most experts lean more towards Scop. What we do know is that it first came about from Cactus Country Nursery which is located in Australia. 

Bridgesii Information

Trichocereus bridgesii or commonly known as “Bolivian Torch” is a fast growing species of columnar cacti that originates in Bolivia. Their natural habitat is drier and more desert-like compared to San Pedro, meaning the Bolivian Torch does not need as much water as their San Pedro cousins but will still grow almost as quickly.  Bridgesii are highly sought after by ornamental cactus collectors around the world. They are coveted for their beautiful green/blue skin and bright yellow/golden spines, as well as their huge, white flowers.

SS02 Information

SS02 is an extremely popular Bridgesii cultivar that came from the Sacred Succulents nursery (The SS in SS02 = Sacred Succulents). A noticeable characteristic of SS02 is that it typically has shorter spines than your average Bridgesii. SS02 is commonly used to create hybrids due to its consistent growth patterns, its beauty, and the fact that it is a fast grower.
