This is three main clumps that had been growing in Northern California for several decades.
Tall columns branch out unlike shorter columns.
Main cluster from a single stump. No effort was made to prune this monster for a pleasing appearance. Instead, it was over-harvested as a source of cuttings.
Its hard to imagine how large Trichocereus Pachanoi will become when you only have specimens in a flower pot.

At 24'' to 36" tall I plant them outdoors by digging a pit backfilled with sandy compost.

When they root in an unlimited size container (the earth) they grow larger much faster. In a few years they become a cluster of columns as tall as a person. Then I transplant to a permanent location.
14 feet to this tip from the ground.
Years of harvesting cuttings left too many unattractive offsets.
Bucksaws easily cut through the wood core. With skill and patience every single piece (cutting) can be rooted into a new plant.
