PRESENTER FOR MARCH IS: Woody Minnich - "Cactus and Succulent Conservation Around the World"
Cactus of the Month
Mini-Show Cactus February 2020: Epiphytic Cactus
Epiphytic cacti do not live in soil like other cacti but in places like rain forests they inhabit the forks or large branches of trees, their roots clinging tightly to their host. Epiphytes have specially designed stomata (leaf openings), that help absorb moisture from the open air.
Succulent of the Month
Mini-Show Succulent February 2020: Haworthia, Astroloba
Two related genera native to South Africa that grow in a Mediterranean like environment with winter-rainfall; similar to that of Southern California.
We are a not-for-profit society operating in California, U.S.A., under I.R. 501(c)(3) rules. More…

- Promote education and cooperation among hobbyists and others interested in the study, culture, and propagation of succulent plants, including cacti.
- Support the activities of organizations whose goals include the conservation of cacti and succulents in their native habitats.
