Anyone here intentionally try to create Chimera via cacti grafts? I've been doing a bit of applied research into this area in general and wanted to know from the experts here what they think/have done in this area.
I'm thinking along the lines of trying to create a variegated monstrose form chimera...but any guidance would be appreciated as usual. If these are already available, I'd like to get my hands on them or some chimera in general to try to create chimera with 4 or more cacti species/cultivars all rolled up in one. I've already go the name picked out....Four WYNDS.

Crazy idea...

Go for it!

Please make me a Trichocereus/Lophophora chimera!

Forgive my ignorance, what are chimera?

The chimaerical cactus!

+ Ortegopuntia cv. "Percy"

"Chimera" is an organism that is made up of cells of two different origins. Only a very few chimerical cactus are known, this new and very rare plant is a graft hybrid containing cells of Opuntia compressa and Ortegocactus macdougalli.

And then there is of course the Trichophophora chimera....
