MAY 24th Auction and sale of Bill Maddam's collection

Post by bcss »

There will be an auction and sale of plants from Bill Maddams collection on Sunday 24th May at 26 Glenfield Road, Banstead, Surrey SM7 2DG. Viewing from 10.30am, auction commences at 11.30am. Approximately 150-200 lots will be auctioned, the remaining plants will be available for sale at modest prices. The collection consists primarily of Mammillarias, Thelocactus and Coryphanthas but there are also some Copiapoas, Weingartias, Matucanas etc. There are a few caudiform succulents, Melocactus and Arrojadoas with quite a few Echinocereus and Cerei. Some pictures will be posted between now and the sale.

Parking in Glenfield road is difficult so attendees are recommended to park in the public car park near the Church opposite the top of Glenfield Road. It is only a couple of hundred yards walk. Space in the garden for the auction is limited. Hot and cold drinks will be available.

Books and journals from his extensive library will be available for sale but at a later date.
