Hey Everybody,

I've been keeping cacti and the odd succulent for about 4 years and have ammassed quite a collection (so easy to get carried away!) I don't know that much of the theory behind growing cacti - so if anyone could mention a good book/journal/website for starting on I would appreciate it :razz: I'm a first year horticulture student and I am starting to get to grips with the science so would like to grow my knowledge on cacti too.

My main interests are in the small opuntias and mammillaria - but I can't actually pronounce that last one!

Nice to meet you all,
Rca

Welcome to the Forum! You have good taste, two of my favourite genera too (see my signature panel :wink: ).

Welcome to the Forum rca, I'm sure you will find plenty to interest you here. Most of us know how easy it is to acquire many plants! I wonder if you have seen the BCSS cultivation leaflets, as shown on the home page? these might be a good starting point for you.
