Trichocereus Chiloensis Cactus Seeds

Trichocereus chiloensis occurs along the coast and in the coastal cordillera of Chile (North-Central Valley of Chile). Trichocereus chiloensis is a fiercely spiny cactus. It is very easy to grow and cold hardy as low as -12°C (or less). Need a fertile, well drained soil mix. Water the plants well and allow them to dry before watering again. This species seems to do better with a little more water than most cacti. In fact, its cultivation requirements are really more like ‘normal’ plants than most other cacti.
