Hello all, I need help in IDing whether this is pachanoi! the flowers look the same. But would be great if someone with expertise could comment.

It is a nice Cereus. Maybe C. hildmaniannus

  Thanks to New Wisdom and everyone else who contributed advice here - I'm still trying to get my PC ID skills down, so this is genuinely helpful (as is the article on EG's site and also the one on Trout's site too)...

What is the big one?

I bought it thinking it is maybe a landscape cultivar of Bridgesii
or a Pachanoi hybrid of some sort.

The only spines are an inch or so. Minimal.

There is a flower forming at the top.

Thanks for help with identification

Identifying "PC" Pachanoi and "Real" Pachanoi

Things you wont see on PC pachanoi
You wont see long spines, "V" notches above the areoles, black hair on the flowers, glaucus blue color (correct me if I'm wrong) ect... (Will update with more research)

I’m seeing screen shots of the first post in this thread used to ID PC pachanoi.
I’ve seen long spines, v notches, black flower hairs (if shaded), and glaucus blue color on PC pachanoi.
Do ya’ll think the section I’ve quoted is still accurate? Should it be updated?

hello all, sorry if this is the wrong thread but I was hoping to get some help IDing some Trichocereus I never got the name of they are the two in small pots that each have two in the first picture (might be too young to id) and the multi branched one in the second picture.

thanks

ooohhh....they are beautiful....and have a resonance with me on a personal level.... like an old friend or familiar....as a child i had a monstrous Pachanoi at my backdoor an impressive giant in my yard and an incredible array of cacti and succulents growing all around.... it was magnificent sculptural and strange and alien to me as a three year old moving into the house from the rain forest.... there was no ridding bicycles and running madly in the yard......and im sad to say as the years went by the local boys would use the cacti as target practice for their home made lead ninja stars and shanghais with u nails.....and slug guns... i can remember the flowering and the scent filling the night air.... and the eventual removal of the spiky giants over the years.... till we eventually had a steel shed erected where a once magnificent Pachanoi stood.....it was a real shame..... however a relative did take away alot to his prorogation house so i hope it didn't end up lost forever.... i have only got fond distant memories now.... but this thread had bought them all back to the front of my mind......thankyou.... id love to hear anyone stories and information on this information on links and articles and pics.... and if anyone knows of where i might be able to get ahold of any chemovars and variations to propagate and preserve and share....xxxx thanks for the trip down memory lane....xxxx Catara

Can anyone help I'd this cactus

Update on my previous post
New pup is sprouting from base and it's definitely Bridgesii.
Guess it grew without spines.
The cactus now looks completely different than when I got it.

[ONandONandON]

Malak ID guess NEOCARDENASIA HERZOGIANA. Bolivian Baseball Bat Cactus

this one arrived yesterday, at first i thought it looks like a cool tricho,
now it looks like blue myrtle cacti with black spines, but still cool. 
(picture used from ebay listing, but it looks about the same)

So I've had my doubts that the cacti I've been collecting are non-pc,
However the newer buds (which have gotten a lot more water and sun vs past seasons) are showing signs such as the "V" and also some varied spine length.

Can anyone give me a better idea of what I'm seeing... Growing here lol.
I can provide more or better pics if needed.

[flickedbic]

Look like PC. 

Newer growth carries more v-notches in PC.  By the old growth however it seems evident to me.

Hello!

Just starting now with Cactus. I read the first post and from what I understand I have the V-shape and therefore these are real Pachanoi and not the PC Clone?

Does this have any consequence except simply the exact genetic origin?

Also the big and small have some grey-white colouring. Is that just a regular colour abomination and nothing serious? Came like this from vendor.

Best



EDIT:

Why do I also have to do the verification for this single post? The letters are so hard to be read ... I now did it wrong 5 times. Also why I do need to write down Terrence's middle name etc? I think I did it when creating this profile already. Is all of this for every post ever to make?

EDIT2: 8x wrong letters
