For our program, Irwin will give a brief slideshow on plant photography, with some easy hints on how to make better pictures and have more fun in the process. If you have a plant you want to know more about, bring it. Chances are we have someone in the group who know its name and how to grow it. Remember, regardless of the categories of plants to bring for the meeting , if something looks spectacular, bring it.

Featured Plants this Month: Variegated, Monstrose, Crested Plants, and Miniature plants… and, as usual, any blooming plants that you’d like to show off.

Discover the depth and duration of human and Agave coevolution across the desert southwest and learn about the unusual Agaves apparently associated with archaeological sites that were abandoned long ago. These Agaves appear to be anthropogenic cultivars – living archaeological relics developed and planted by indigenous Native Americans – and many are still growing exactly where they were planted hundreds of years ago.

Program: Exploring the Best of Our Wonderful Mammillarias; “Normals” and Their Strange Variations There are about 200 recognized species in the genus Mammillaria, making it one of the largest members of the cactus family. Everyone has at least one, and it is usually the first cactus in a collection. Because of this, the entire genus is sometimes viewed as uninteresting or common, but this program explores the joy of finding the oddities of a “normal” species.
