For more than 40 years, the Cactus and Succulent Society of America (CSSA) has been fortunate to house its library at The Huntington, where it has served generations of researchers, authors, students, and plant enthusiasts. Recently, The Huntington informed us that they now need the space for their own institutional use, and as a result, CSSA must relocate its library.
Cacti and other succulents have some of the most sculptural forms with amazing designs, textures, and colors. Join Irwin for a lively discussion of light, composition, plant portraiture, and landscapes.
The CSSA is pleased to share a new article written by Lauren Lozano, the CSSA-funded intern at The Huntington’s renowned Desert Garden.
