===== Description =====
While a detailed botanical description of the "Yard bridge" clone is limited, community observations indicate that it exhibits a robust growth habit. Unlike some *Trichocereus bridgesii* phenotypes that present thin, crawling, or decumbent stems, "Yard bridge" grows as a more upright and substantial column. 

===== History & Origin =====
The "Yard bridge" clone was discovered and introduced to the Trichocereus community by Taj Chaffin. 

===== Cultivation Notes =====
No clone-specific cultivation requirements were detailed in the community discussion. As a *Trichocereus* cultivar, it generally thrives in well-draining soil mixes (typically 50% organic matter and 50% mineral grit such as pumice or perlite). It benefits from deep, infrequent watering during the active growing season and protection from hard frosts.
