Trichocereus 'Krang' is a rare hybrid clone notable for its distinct morphological presentation, described by growers as having a striking “corncob” appearance. This growth habit typically features heavily segmented ribs with closely set areoles, creating a patterned, textured stem structure reminiscent of a maize ear. Specific botanical details regarding epicuticular wax (glaucousness), spine length, count, and flower characteristics remain poorly documented due to the clone's extreme rarity in general cultivation.
'Krang' was bred and raised by Australian grower Bradley Drysdale. According to information shared within the Trichocereus community, the clone originated from a cross between Trichocereus 'Chico' and Trichocereus 'Sunkist' ('Chico' x 'Sunkist').
The plant first gained notoriety through photos shared directly by Drysdale in online collector forums. As of circa 2023, the plant had not been widely cloned or commercially propagated, remaining largely confined to its original collection.
No clone-specific cultivation requirements have been documented in community discussions. As a *Trichocereus* hybrid derived from robust parentage, standard care guidelines for columnar *Trichocereus* apply:
