Here's what is known about CV. Medicine Man:
Species: It is a specific clone of Trichocereus Bridgesii.
Origin of Name: The name "Medicine Man" is a tribute. It was named after a Curandero (which means "Medicine Man" or "Shaman") in South America. Curanderos are traditional healers who often incorporate plants like Trichocereus in their practices for healing and seeking guidance.
Circulation: This clone has been traded among cactus enthusiasts in California and online groups for some time.
Characteristics: While specific visual details are not always consistently detailed, as a Trichocereus bridgesii clone, it would generally exhibit:
Columnar growth: Upright, cylindrical stems.
Spines: Bridgesii typically have relatively few, often robust spines, though spine length and color can vary.
Coloration: Blue-green to glaucous (waxy, powdery blue) stems, especially in good light.
Growth Rate: Trichocereus bridgesii are generally fast-growing.
Significance: Its name connects it to the traditional uses of San Pedro cacti in Andean cultures, where these plants have a long history in traditional medicine and religious divination.
