Program: Succulent Bulbs, Winter Transition

This month’s program will begin by looking at xeric bulbs – and their pretty foliage, beautiful flowers and exposed caudices – via a short PowerPoint presentation. The second part will address our plants' slowing metabolism through migration to winter quarters.

Welcome to the online home of the largest cactus and succulent group in the Midwest. Please explore our website and consider joining HSCSS. Our members are happy to share their knowledge with fellow hobbyists and the general public, as well.

Based in St. Louis, Missouri, Henry Shaw Cactus and Succulent Society is an affiliate chapter of the Cactus and Succulent Society of America and a member plant society of Missouri Botanical Garden. To all who share an interest in succulents and cacti, we wish you good growing.
