Pachycereus pringlei Seeds

Common Name: Cardon

Pachycereus pringlei, named after American botanist, Cyrus Pringle, is a columnar cactus native to the Sonoran Desert that is the tallest of all cactus species. With specimens reportedly reaching 21 meters in height with a diameter of about 60cm, this species resembles the popular Giant Saguaro, Carnegiea gigantea but has fewer ribs. Pachycereus pringlei blooms white flowers that are pollinated by insects, birds and bats. Birds and bats are also responsible for spreading Pachycereus pringlei’s seed when they eat the fruit, which is also edible to humans. This fruit was used as a staple food by natives such as the Seri people of Sonora. Native people also utilized other parts of the cactus such as the seed, which they ground into flour, and the spines, which they used to make fishing spears. Like other species of columnar cactus, Pachycereus pringlei was also reportedly used for construction and fencing. Additionally, the flesh was used medicinally as a disinfectant and a pain killer as well as for healing.
