Here's what we know about it: Collector's Corner: This likely refers to a specific nursery or collector, possibly in Australia, from where this variegated Peruvian Torch originated or was popularized. Variegated Peru: This indicates that this cultivar of Echinopsis peruviana exhibits variegation, meaning it has different colored zones in its flesh or epidermis, often appearing as stripes or patches of yellow, white, or lighter green alongside the typical blue-green.
Appearance: From discussions and photos online (like the Reddit thread you might have been thinking of), CCVP is noted for its beautiful variegation, sometimes with a "bleeding" effect where the colors blend. It can also develop a glaucous (powdery blue) coating.
