Any forum regulars heading to this? I'll be showing a few plants in the decorative categories this time around and it'd be good to put some faces to names.

Yup
I'll be there ..... working. Team Green Safety tabard with my assistant similarly attired.
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs. Recently discovered gorgeous Gasteria.

Really enjoyed the show. Some great plants on display, a bustling sales area and lots of interest from the public.

Also great to meet / speak to some of you from the forum. :grin:

If anyone missed this, I've put together a short video showing (I hope) all of the classes of plants.

Feel free to share it with fellow cactus people!

Pictures of the show plants can be seen on the Facebook page of . branch.
The forum upload is too restrictive.
