A few decades later, what does another patch of seedlings look like that have been hard grown in southern Cali? I copied and edited some of this from another post about a similar grouping of trichs on my fb Cactus Division page. These were rescued from a local nursery's dumpster by my Dad Jiimz and I 20+ years or so ago. The cacti and succulent variety offered via most of the larger wholesale growers has greatly diminished in the last 20 years, my guess is it's been dropping for far longer with the older collectors/growers and seed catalogs passing away. Commercial nurseries are constantly having to up pot their stock as it grows, and if space is limited and or stock isn't selling, it's easier to just throw stuff away and move on. Cacti in particular, and spinier ones specifically, can be very difficult to keep, move, transport etc. For whatever the reason, these were thrown out with other cactus, succulents and trash and we brought home what we could. I planted them alongside the bottom part of my property alongside a hoop house my cousin built 20 years or so ago after he was released for some poor life choices, he’s since passed away, God please Bless his Soul. For the most part these were left them to fend for themselves in our extremely hot and dry summers, and cold, mid 20 winters. I ran a few sprinklers near them a few years ago, gave them a few drinks of summer water, decided there was no need to push any growth, and so for the most part they've been left to grow wild a few feet away from our small California Manzanita area. Quite a bit of variation amongst these guys/phenos, it's possible these seeds were combined with other similar peruvianus seeds, or maybe not??? This section is called Tricho Peruvianus “Resilience”, different area than where “Perseverance” is growing here which were all dumpster diving throwaways. Which leads to genotypes and phenotypes, enjoy the pics, my Son Blaise cut this piece over the weekend, this area hasn’t been touched with a knife in a very long time and then only a few times if ever. I will drop a video shortly on this area soon.

And always hold the door open for others, it's not a sign of weakness. Peace.

 Ready to be rooted and potted.

**Cactus are not perfect, they may have small flaws, we try and photograph all sides of a cactus including any flaws that catch our attention, but please do not expect every spine to be perfect, these are growing cactus and like people, they have character!
