Trichocereus bridgesii, monstrose form. Called penis cactus or toothpick cactus depending on spines. T. bridgesii contains higher levels of alkaloids, including mescaline, than the more commonly used T. Pachnoi "San Pedro". The monstrose form is said to be particularly potent, although it is slower growing.
