T. Bridgesii Information

Trichocereus bridgesii (syn. Echinopsis lagenformis) 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.

Sonoran Bridgesii Information

This cultivar got its name because a huge stand of it was found growing wildly in the middle of the Sonoran Desert. It is a pretty impressive feat that it was able to survive out in the blistering sun and heat. We traded with the person who originally found the stand for 2 pieces of what was then, a rough looking cactus. With some TLC, it has definitely turned out to be a gorgeous cactus. Both pieces that we have pupped out with 5 pups each and all are growing vigorously. Sonoran Bridgesii has 3 spines per areole with 1 long one that points downwards. With age, some of the areoles drop down to 1 spine.

This Specific Cactus

• Length: 13 inches long
• More photos available upon request
• Includes 1 San Pedro sticker 
• Because it’s a mid cutting it can be planted vertically or horizontally. Horizontal planting (AKA “log style“) can cause a delay in pupping, but it will allow it to produce many more pups
