Camillo
Description
“Camillo” (also spelled “Camilo”) is described as a textbook *Trichocereus pachanoi* (with some listings referencing it as *Trichocereus macrogonus* / *pachanoi*). It features a dark, glossy green epidermis. The spination is described variably, with reports of both “fairly small spines” and “powerful spines,” which may suggest variability depending on the age of the growth or environmental conditions.
History & Origin
This clone originates from Murcia, Spain. The source material consists of three giant mother plants, reported to be over 25 years old, located at the Habitacactus quarry.
Cultivation Notes
According to source reports, “Camillo” exhibits vigorous and healthy growth. In its quarry environment in Murcia, it has reportedly been grown naturally without the use of fertilizers or additives. Standard *Trichocereus pachanoi* cultivation practices apply: provide well-draining soil, deep but infrequent watering during the growing season, and adequate sunlight to maintain its dark green coloration.
