Badassii
Description
“Badassii” is described as a Trichocereus hybrid with strong Trichocereus peruvianus characteristics (often referred to as having “peru vibes”). It exhibits monstrose growth tendencies and is distinguished by its unique, sometimes curly spines arising from its areoles. The rib count, spine length, and specific epidermis color are not explicitly documented in the discussion, though it displays typical peruvianus traits.
History & Origin
The clone was originally cultivated by a grower supplying the Dutch smartshop Zamnesia. It was initially distributed under the name “Zamnesiana” at a very low price point. The clone was later renamed (associated with the names “Badassii” and “Zamnesia”) and marketed at a significantly higher price, reportedly marked up tenfold.
Cultivation Notes
No specific cultivation details were provided in the community discussion. As a Trichocereus peruvianus hybrid, it generally thrives in well-draining mineral soil, requiring deep watering during the active growing season with dry periods in between, and prefers partial to full sunlight.
