best way to re root fallen tricho?
Too much lean and rain must have forced my tricho to the breaking point. Now how is the best method to re root? A clean cut with rooting hormone and replant or pot? Should I remove the pups and plant them vertically?

Thanks teebee, wasnt sure how long it needed to scab over. I think I will pot it till June. Still have 18" after the cut, even though I had to cut a large chunk off.

This cactus has been super hardy for a 3$ buy from Lowes. It has seen -1F with no damage, just needs to be dry. If any one is interested while out shopping.

Good stuff!
Amazing how hardy those are..
I like to put perlite or small crushed gravel
under the cut,that way there is no soil actually
touching the plant so the roots stay dry when soil gets wet.

probably not the same variety but some of these do grow on the ground.

Thanks for the advice Jim!
The first photo may be closer to what I have. Have you seen it bloom? The 2 I have planted next to each other came labeled as the same plant, id's must general. Its easy to tell that they are different. Here is mine in bloom.

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

I wonder if your Tricho could have been mislabled...I have seen
nothing but growth out of mine-a little scary how fast it grows!

We have been in the 80's F here and appear to be well past our last frost. With that I brought out the potted tricho with a few friends. Will wait till its hotter to plant it.

Hopefully in about a month I will get most of these barrel cactus in the ground. I have plenty of room where agave decided to die on me.

Nice collection...I think one of my Tricho is similar to the
one to the right of your Saquaro...lots of good stuff!!!

Do you know the name of the Tricho between the Saguaro and the Pachy?
