Gator
Description
“Gator” is a clone characterized by a phenotype highly reminiscent of a non-monstrose *Trichocereus pachanoi* (often abbreviated in the community as “TP(non)M”). It typically exhibits standard *T. pachanoi* features, including defined ribs, small areoles, and short spines. Despite its standard non-monstrose appearance, community members note that its hybrid offspring frequently exhibit “funky” or atypical growth patterns.
History & Origin
According to community reports, “Gator” was originally found in Sonoma, California. There is unresolved speculation within the community regarding whether the clone originated from the collection of Bob Baker.
Cultivation Notes
No clone-specific cultivation requirements were detailed in the discussion. Standard *Trichocereus pachanoi* cultivation practices apply: utilize a highly gritty, well-draining soil mix, provide deep watering during the active growing season, and keep the plant dry during winter dormancy. It thrives in partial to full sun depending on regional intensity.
