BOTANICAL SAMPLE - NOT GERMINATION TESTED

 Life cycle: Perennial

'Huancabamba' is a tall, stately, columnar cactus from Peru, said to be a Peruvian torch cactus (Trichocereus peruvianus). Closely related to — and possibly a hybrid with — the more well-known San Pedro cactus (Trichocereus pachanoi), both species have a long history of use as medicine and in spiritual/shamanistic practices. Like San Pedro, this species contains mescaline, the hallucinogenic substance that gives peyote its potency, though torch cactus contains far less mescaline than peyote and is legal to grow and possess. Huancabamba is a town in northern Peru, in the foothills of the Andes, and is widely considered a major spiritual center thanks to the presence of lagoons above the town that are regarded as sacred as well as the large number of traditional healers (curanderas & curanderos) who practice there.

Peruvian torch cacti are fast-growing (up to 18 inches per year) and can get very tall in the wild (up to nearly 20 feet!). They take well to container culture and can stand being overwatered more than most cacti. They are relatively frost hardy, able to withstand temperatures down to 26 degrees, but they are unlikely to be able to survive year-round below USDA Zone 9. Their white flowers are spectacularly beautiful.

We got our seed from our friends at Sheffield's Seed Company in Locke, NY, who report that it was grown in Florida. There are some questions online about whether or not the 'Huancabamba' strain of Peruvian torch cactus is actually a hybrid with San Pedro cactus (Trichocereus pachanoi), so it wouldn't be unexpected to find some diversity among the seedlings these seeds produce.

GROWING TIPS: Seeds are surprisingly easy to grow, needing no pre-treatment of any kind. They do require light to germinate, so they should be surface-sown. Keep moist until seedlings appear.

chemical exfoliation is better than scrubbing!
Style: Exfoliating 2% AHA, Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
I'm maintaining a professional peel with these bad boys and it's working! I love how they create a smooth surface for make-up. Since I've stopped chemical exfoliation these keep my skin texture looking great.

My Makeup Finally Grips Again, These Pads Work
Style: Exfoliating 2% AHA, Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1), Style: Exfoliating 2% AHA, Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
My friend recommended the Thayers toner pads because my makeup was having a hard time gripping on my nose and upper cheeks. She told me I needed at least some basic skin prep, and her routine is a cleanser, these toner pads, a moisturizer, and a weekly exfoliator. She said these pads were great , and honestly, wow. They’re a great value for the price. And I love how it’s travel-ish size for when I am running later. The toner pads alone made a huge difference. My makeup finally started gripping so much better. The first time I used them, my buildup was so bad I had to use two pads, front and back. Ever since then, my skin actually enjoys my weekly (sometimes twice‑weekly) exfoliating pads. This brand and combo make my skin look more youthful, brighter, and clean. It’s such an easy step to add, and I even take them on the go when I’m short on time. Thank you, Thayers.
