Synopsis
This handsomely illustrated book introduces plant growers to the basics of cactus care and cultivation, then presents an alphabetized directory of roughly 50 varieties–from Acanthocalycium to Uebelmannia pectinifera. More practical for plant growers, and shown in stunning photographs, is the magnificent variety of cactus flowers that blossom from the unusual and fascinating shapes of these plants, this helps to identify a plant. It also has good information on how to care for your cactus, with extra tips on every the page; it also lists the care of cactus by each month of the year. Another big help is the section on identifying what the damage of disease and pests looks like on a cactus plant. It shows this with photos of the damage or pests, and tells how to care for the plant.
