The Blue Torch Cactus, known as Pilosocereus  pachycladus, is a stunning cactus species cherished for its vibrant blue-green stems and upright growth. These cuttings provide a simple and rewarding way to propagate this remarkable plant, allowing it to flourish in your garden or indoor collection.

As cuttings, they serve as an ideal starting point for cultivating this visually striking species. While this product features cuttings, the Blue Torch Cactus, opens in a new tab is also available as a fully established main plant for those who prefer a ready-to-display specimen. 

Native to Brazil, its hardy and drought-tolerant nature, makes it well-suited to similar environments worldwide. 

The Blue Torch Cactus cuttings exhibit the same vibrant bluish-green coloration and vertical ridges as the mature plant.

The spines are typically golden to white, adding a striking contrast to the blue stems.

Over time, the cutting will root and grow into a tall, columnar cactus, eventually developing multiple stems and forming clumps in outdoor landscapes.

Once rooted and established, the Blue Torch Cactus can grow to 20 feet tall outdoors, with individual stems reaching up to 4 inches in diameter. Indoor-grown plants tend to remain more compact, usually between 6 feet. 

Mature Blue Torch Cacti flowers are elegant, white, and tubular and bloom at night, attracting nocturnal pollinators like bats and moths. While these flowers may take several years to develop from a cutting, their beauty and fragrance are delightful rewards for patient growers. 

To ensure your Blue Torch Cactus cuttings thrive, provide bright, direct sunlight for at least 6 to 8 hours daily. If indoors, place the cutting near a south-facing window or supplement with grow lights. Keep the plant in temperatures between 65°F and 85°F. Avoid prolonged exposure to temperatures below 50°F.

For outdoor cultivation, it is best suited for zones 9 to 11, where the climate is warm and frost-free. 

Use a well-draining cactus mix, opens in a new tab or amend regular potting soil with coarse sand and perlite to prevent waterlogging. Feed with an NPK fertilizer with an equal ratio of 5-10-5 once a year in the spring.

Apply monthly at half strength for healthy growth. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Newly planted cuttings require minimal water until roots develop. Reduce watering significantly in the dormant winter months. 

Propagation from cuttings is simple and effective. After receiving your Blue Torch Cactus cutting, allow it to dry and form a callus for about a week before planting it in a well-draining soil mix. Position the cutting upright in the soil, ensuring stability, and water sparingly until roots develop, usually within 2–4 weeks. 

According to ASPCA, the Pilosocereus pachycladus is non-toxic to humans, cats, and dogs. It does, however, have sharp spines that can injure if not handled carefully. 

Overall, the Blue Torch Cactus cuttings (Pilosocereus pachycladus) are an excellent way to cultivate a visually striking cactus from scratch. With their vivid coloration, architectural growth, and low-maintenance care needs, these cuttings offer endless possibilities for gardeners and collectors alike. Whether you’re starting your journey with a cutting or adding a mature plant to your collection, this species brings a touch of desert elegance to any space.

A Healer's Book
Format: Paperback
In my opinion, this book is most suited to the "healers". I am only part-way through it right now, but thoroughly agree with what I have read so far because I have either experienced it or it makes logical sense from where I am on my personal journey. The book is slow reading, not difficult, but slow if you really want to understand what Barbara has written as she combines science with metaphysical beliefs. I cannot compare this book to her first book because, although I purchased her first book years ago, I honestly have not read it yet. "Light Emerging" was recommended by my master teacher. Barbara has spent significant time studying the auric fields of people vs. behavior. I plan to return to this review at a later time and update it with additional information, but I see it as a valuable resource for a healer (for both healing self and healing others). By the way, if you don't know it already, healing is not limited to the physical body. There is emotional healing and spiritual healing as well. ALL are important. The healthiest people are those who are balanced on all levels. This 342-page book explains a lot about energy, both scientifically and metaphysically. If you have already done significant reading, this book expands on a lot of it, such as explaining the chakras and the movement of energy throughout the system. As Barbara goes through each chakra, she explains how you likely behave if that chakra is fully functioning or if it is blocked. Quite a few illustrations within the book visually show you the energy movements within people who exhibit certain types of behavior, and the movements of energy within groups of 2 people exchanging energies at certain levels. This is one way in which this book is different from many other chakra and energy vibrational books. An example is an illustration of a couple in dispute and how they energetically resolved the dispute. Barbara has the developed ability to see the auric fields, as some do, and she supplements her writing with experiences she has had with clients. In this instance, she explains the energy movement in 3 stages of the therapy between the couple, as well as illustrates it in picture form, so you can follow what is happening energetically between the couple throughout the process. Here is a little tid-bit for you from the book: Barbara mentions that Dr. Robert Beck, a nuclear physicist, found that all healers exhibit the brain-wave patterns of 7.8 - 8 Hz while they are giving healings, the same fluctuation of the earth's magnetic energy field (the Schumann waves). The assumption is that the healers are synching up with the earth's magnetic field when doing healing. Dr. John Zimmerman, founder and president of Bio-Electro-Magnetics Institute, found through additional research, that once healers have linked with the Schumann waves, the right and left hemispheres of their brain have become balanced with each other and show a 7.8 - 8 Hz alpha rhythm. After they link with the patient for some time through laying on of hands, they are able to link the client in with the same earth's energy magnetic pulsations. Good book. If you are into metaphysical energy and healing, I think you will enjoy it and find it very informative. If you are NOT into metaphysical energy and healing, you will likely not understand it and may get nothing from it, especially if you are not open to this area of study.

Sequel to Hands of Light
Format: Paperback
Hands of Light has been widely recognized as the foundational text merging the Eastern approach to healing through cleansing and balancing a person's chakras and auras with the Western approach to healing through re-tuning a person's electromagnetic frequencies by applying the principles of quantum physics. Barbara's sequel, Light Emerging, further amplifies and extends these concepts. Specifically, she elaborates on the applications of the Holographic Model, the Creative Process and the mechanisms of Spiritual Guidance. She defines and diagrams the four dimensions of humanity at the Physical, Auric, Harac and Core Star levels. Through these four dimensions, average humans, once healed and balanced, can mature to be channels of energy, connecting heaven to earth vertically, and connecting all of humanity horizontally. The whole of Barbara's teaching can be incorporated into these four simple, clear and deeply profound diagrams. Since her previous book, Barbara set aside her private practice to establish a four-year university-level program to train and accredit healing practitioners to apply these disciplines. This book incorporates the further insights and experiences she gained through developing her School. Light Emerging is written specifically to instruct readers on how to self-heal and to give readers a preview on the commitment required to becoming a healing practitioner. This book is not intended to replace her School's four-year degree in healing. Appendix C offers links to current lists of her practicing graduates, by city and state. There is no duplication between her books. I personally benefited by reading and studying them side by side. I have also called a number of her graduates here in California and confirm they have both the meticulous training and proper motives to follow in Barbara Ann Brennon's footsteps. No fiction here. This book exemplifies the theory and practice of genuine physical, psychological and spiritual healing, either through self-study or through a practitioner.
