KR04
Description
Specific botanical details such as rib count, spine morphology, and epidermis color are not documented in the provided community discussion.
History & Origin
The clone KR04 is distributed globally, with specimens established in Australia, Europe, Peru, the United States, Mexico, Chile, and Canada. Huan Shuma is identified as a primary source of the original KR04 cuttings.
Cultivation Notes
Cultivators have reported that KR04 tips can be sensitive to rot during the rooting process. In the event of rot, the clone can be successfully salvaged by grafting the remaining tip onto robust rootstocks, such as the hybrid Cerdanyola A1 x Francis.
In 2022 (approx), Huan Shuma successfully crossed KR04 with Echinopsis calochlora, though seed stock from this cross is currently unavailable.
