HIstory
This cactus is native to the Andes mountains in Peru. Peruvian Torch resembles the San Pedro, except it has a lighter bluish/green colour, large white flowers and longer thorns.
Curious fact: The fragant white flowers open only in the evening and for one evening only!
Growing Peruvian torch from seeds
- The Peruvian Torch (Trichocereus peruvianus) cactus is best cultivated in a sterilized mix of sand, perlite and gravel (or peat).
- Clean and desinfect the growing container. Be sure to add small drainage holes in the growing container to help reduce chances of over-watering.
- The environment should be humid and ideally around 23 °C (73 ºF), but do not place the growing medium directly on a heater.
- Don’t let the young cacti get in contact with direct sunlight; fluorescent lighting is preferred for the first 3 months.
- Only after the cacti are a year old should they be placed in direct light.
