Hi, can anyone suggest the best books to get to identify these cacti and succulents? have got a few books but there is something in one and something in the next, so you end up with a pile of books that cost a fortune. i have one called 'cacti and succulents' by Hans Hecht but i can;'t keep getting it out of the library! it's not bad but i know there are thousands more that could be included.
thanks for any info.

Hi Jancc
I found a site the other day called 'Rainbow Gardens Bookshop' they specialise in Cacti books and had hundreds. There was one called 'Cacti: The Illustrated Dictionary' by Rod & Ken Preston-Mafham, which looked really good. Am going to see if I can order it in Australia. The site is worth checking out.

Hi Tracey
thanks for the info. will try to locate it. we can order books into our library so you can 'try before you buy', which comes in handy if you have to pay a lot for abook and it readlly isn't what you want.
cheers Jan
