'San Pedro Cactus Varieties' seed kit

grow slowly, though: It takes them about five years to grow 20 cm.
Therefore, some patience is needed before one can enjoy their beautiful flowers. The cacti usually blossom once they have reached a height of about 30 cm.
These cacti are indigenous to South America. Archeological findings indicate that they were traditionally used as medicinal plants and for shamanic rituals.

This seed kit contains 3 San Pedro cactus varieties of the type trichocereus:

• San Pedro cactus (trichocereus pachanoi)
  The fast-growing San Pedro cactus grows approximately 30cm per year. It is often utilised for building cactus fences.
• Peruvian San Pedro Torch cactus (trichocereus peruvianus)
  This columniform variety originates in Peru. Its fragrant white flowers are funnel-shaped, ca. 25 cm long and blossom at night.
• Cardon Grande (trichocereus terscheckii)
  This columniform cactus from the Andes grows like a tree and can reach heights of up to 10-12 meters. It is gigantic!

The seeds of each variety are packaged in a separate sachet (20 seeds per sachet).

Sowing & care: The seeds are scattered on moist cactus soil and pressed on slightly. Cover the pot with glass (mini greenhouse), so that the moisture stays. After about 2 weeks the germination begins. In 2-3 months the seedlings already look like small cacti. Cactus loves a lot of sun, fresh air and a little water. If at all in winter only water about once a month and then very carefully.
