historical phenomenon—a deluxe series of eleven volumes,
including four new titles and three new editions of his
long-out-of-print books. <i><b>Photos of the first
completed set are now posted</b></i>, see <a

<font
face="times new roman,serif"
size="4">We're aware there is
some confusion out there
around our <i>Trichocereus</i>
BK<i> </i>accessions
distributed over the years.
For clarity, we recently began
work on a document that
catalogs all 40+ of these
field accessions together in
one place. While fleshing out
the descriptions more
thoroughly, we're
incorporating greater detail
about the Andean habitat of
each collection, including
companion plants associates,
plus additional ethnobotany
and regional history. We also
recognize the value in sharing
information about distribution
-- what year we originally
introduced an accession into
cultivation, what it was
(seed, cuttings, seedlings),
what has been distributed over
the ensuing years, and
approximate quantities. We had
naively thought we could pull
this together into a new web
page, featuring photos of the
plants, both in-situ and
ex-situ, by winter solstice...
Well, it turns out that this
is a <i>much</i> larger
undertaking than we'd
anticipated! In our scant
'spare' time, we've been
looking over <i>thousands</i>
of photos, reading through our
old field notes, two decades
of <i>Sacred Succulents</i>
catalogs, and hundreds of
pages of <i>SS</i>
supplements, rare plant lists,
etc, not to mention additional
reference material. We now
endeavor to work on this in
stages, updating the webpage
periodically, with the goal to
have the entire project
completed by spring 2025.
Expect more descriptions and
images to be posted in the
coming weeks!<br>
