| ===== Description ===== | ===== Description ===== |
| "Coyote" is a distinct *Trichocereus* clone characterized by its striking glaucous blue epidermis. Morphologically, it presents an intermediate phenotype that has led to discussion regarding its exact classification, exhibiting traits of both a short-spined *Trichocereus peruvianus* and a long-spined *Trichocereus pachanoi*. The plant forms large, columnar stands with prominent ribs and defined areoles bearing moderate spines. | Coyote is a found Trichocereus clone. It may be a hybrid, a short-spined T. peruvianus, or a long-spined T. pachanoi. It typically displays a blue glaucous farina, medium length yellow spines, moderate depth notching, and typically 5 - 8 ribs. |

| ===== History & Origin ===== | ===== History & Origin ===== |
| The clone was discovered and introduced to the community by Bashir Al-Saguari around 2021 (approximately five years prior to 2026) in East County, San Diego, California. Al-Saguari located the mother stands on the perimeter of a private property belonging to an ornamental succulent seller. According to the property owner, the specimen was originally sourced approximately 30 years prior (circa 1996) from growers near Alpine, California. | The clone was discovered and introduced to the community by Bashir Al-Saguari, also known as reddit user Grodysattva, around 2021 in East County, San Diego, California.

| ===== Cultivation Notes ===== | <ifauth @trusted_grower,@admin> |
| While specific cultivation data for "Coyote" is limited in the discussion, it thrives under standard *Trichocereus* care. It is known to produce robust mother stands and has been successfully integrated into hybrid breeding programs (such as "Coyote x Daniel"). For optimal growth and to maintain its characteristic glaucous blue coloration, cultivate in a highly gritty, well-draining soil mix, provide deep watering only when the substrate is completely dry, and place in a position that receives bright, filtered sunlight to partial direct sun. | |
