Namaqualand in my Garden: A live tour of a mesemb greenhouse in Oakland, California.

Russell Wagner is a former editor of the Cactus and Succulent Journal, and founder of the Little Sphaeroid Press. A disciple of Steven Hammer, who first carried him to South Africa in 2003, Russell has made numerous visits to study mesembs and bulbs in habitat. 


An open Q&A discussion with Russel Wagner and MSG Chairman Terry Smale will follow the main presentation.

This is a fantastic chance to get your cultivation and Aizoaceae ID questions answered. If you aren’t familiar with the growing guides Terry has written, do yourself a favor and check out his website. Some of the best growers in the world have learned from him.
