T pach ”Field’s” OP (Open Pollinated) SEED

T pach “Fields” OP 

OP = Open Pollinated. This means the “Father” plant is not known. Since Trichocereus cacti are not self fertile, we know that it must have pollinated by another Tricho, but where the bees carried the pollen from is unknown. 

If I had to guess on this one, I would say it was pollinated by T peru “Serra Blue” as that was the only other plant flowering at the time anywhere near “Field’s” - this is just an educated guess though.

T  pach “Field’s” is from the Field’s collection in northern Victoria, Australia. A truly legendary cactus collection.
