October Meeting: Thursday October 1, 7PM Garden Club Building Lorenzi Park

If you have an interest in Agave, Aloe, and plants of Peru, you are invited to attend the Cactus and Succulent Society of Southern Nevada's October 1 meeting, 7PM at the Garden Club Building at Lorenzi Park (enter off Twin Lakes). Our guest speaker from California is Kelly Griffin. Kelly is an outstanding hybridizer of Agave and Aloe. This talk should be a good one! We already use plants from Peru in our landscapes. Kelly uses plants from all over the world and develops new ones appropriate for a variety of climates. If you can't make the Thursday night meeting, Kelly will be at Plant World with others of CSSSN on Saturday, October 3 (best time to visit is probably 10AM to 3PM). I hope to see many of you there. Happy growing, Susan Kent

This meeting with Kelly Griffin from Rancho Soledad Nursery was as good as they get.  The friendship, the questions, the answers, the plant raffle, sales and give a ways; the presentation of plants in Peru, the special new plant introductions; AND FOLLOWED by a Saturday at Plant World! We had nearly record attendance.  Thanks to all that participated, and welcome to you new members.  Thanks for the interest.  spread the word.  This little club can be hot!  For more about what's going on, look at this link:
