Waiuni 'NZ" (Cuttings)

'Wainui' refers to a specific cultivar (cultivated variety) of Trichocereus pachanoi, commonly known as San Pedro cactus. Here's what is known about it:

Origin and Rarity:
It is described as a "beautiful smoother pach" from New Zealand.

New Zealand is noted for having some of the most impressive Trichocereus collections in the world, suggesting a strong history of cultivation and breeding there.

"Wainui" cuttings are often described as being rare or available only in limited quantities by vendors. We will offer 10" cuttings from time to time.

Characteristics:
As a Trichocereus pachanoi cultivar, it shares general characteristics with San Pedro cactus:

Columnar growth: It grows in tall, upright columns.

Color: Typically light to dark green, sometimes glaucous (bluish-green hue).

Ribs: Generally has 6-8 ribs.

Spines: While Trichocereus pachanoi can have spines up to 2 cm long, cultivated varieties like 'Wainui' are often described as having "smoother" stems, implying shorter or less prominent spines, or even being mostly spineless.

The "CV" designation indicates that it is a named clone or cultivar, meaning it's a specific plant that is propagated vegetatively (from cuttings) to maintain its unique characteristics. This is distinct from plants grown from seed, which can have more genetic variation.
Like other Trichocereus species, 'Wainui' is likely to be fast-growing and adaptable.
