Name and range

Kew accepts Echinopsis pachanoi, with a native range from southern Ecuador into Peru. Trichocereus pachanoi is a synonym. Records of introduction elsewhere are distinct from that native range.

Species identity is not clone identity

A nursery label reading “pachanoi” does not supply a clone pedigree. Preserve its original label, supplier, date and propagation method; record uncertainty explicitly. See the grower’s pachanoi reference.
