Trichocereus peruviana, aka Peruvian Torch is a fast growing columnar cactus native to the western slopes of the Andres, Peru. Sometimes referred to as "Peruvian Fence post" :-).
There are a few different variations of peruviana as you can get long-spined, short-spined etc. which would largely be governed by locality and environment.

Steps For Rooting
Once the cut is received, place it around 1/2 inch to 1 inch in a pot of substrate. I use wooden kebab skewers to hold up the piece. Water lightly and you should start getting new root growth within a few weeks to a few months depending on conditions.
An alternative way would be to stick them in perlite and wait for them to root, once roots form you can re-pot.
All plants sold are strictly for garden / ornamental purposes, not for human consumption.
We are here to cultivate these beautiful plants and spread them as far as we can, nothing outside of growing (all things related to growing) will be tollerated.
