I have a difficult time getting as many sturdy, thick body grafting stocks as that - Basically I'm, always at a shortage of those. | |

| Kandahar,
I have a Pachanoi and a Bridgesii cutting you can have about 50cm in length. Send me a PM and we can sort it out.
SK869,
All trichos are good, pach or scop are the best in my opinion, less spines makes it easier.

| hellonasty, i really want to advise you that most of the tricho family is not so good for the beauty of the astro, it pump it nicely in hot climate but it reduce the tricomes, harisia jusberty have the oposit nice effect to let the plant grow wither!

| Thanks Cortona, the problem I have is I don't have a great deal of Harrisia jusbertii, I use it when I can. Flowers are also much stronger on Harrisia. | |
