So this classic hybrid called ORANGE CALIFORNIA belongs to a group of hybrids often referred to as California hybrids. The breeder is Hans Britsch and the parents are Soehrensia x Trichocereus schickendantzii. ORANGE CALIFORNIA is a sister of the even more famous hybrid FLYING SAUCER, which is very similar, but has even better flowers. So far I’ve only seen flowers on ORANGE CALIFORNIA once or twice, so it’s always a great sight to see the flowers. One of the pollinations succeeded too!
