cactus world

Post by daniel82 »

When is the next cactus world due? I haven't seen one recently and I thought it was meant to be in December (unless I've got my months muddled).

Yes Daniel, it's due in December and mine hasn't arrived either. Hopefully they will be here for Christmas reading.

There was a communications problem between the printer and the mailing house so the Journal was just over a week late going out. We understand that most were mailed last Friday so should hopefully be with you before Xmas.
We are taking steps to ensure that this specific problem cannot happen again.

Another Melocactus cover, that's two in a row, presumably it has some connection to something inside?

Another Melocactus cover,
tut tut, maybe we will get two succulents issues next :wink: I vote for Euphorbia & agave - of course :lol:.

I have really enjoyed reading this issue, the National pictures look good with the black background and a good example of how not to stage your plants from me with my greenhouse label & not a plain named label :???: .

Nice ' in my greenhouse' too.

and the seed list
Tina

varied collection of succulents and cacti but I especially like Euphorbia's, Ariocarpus and variegated agaves.
