Cactus and Succulent Journal

Our flagship publication, Cactus and Succulent Journal, has been the leading publication of its kind since 1929.

It features popular and scientific articles about cacti and other succulent plants, including Caudiciform and Pachycaul succulents, and xerophytes.

Each full color, quarterly, volume features: horticultural instruction, new plants, research and conservation reports, travelogues, biographical and historical material, and book-reviews.

Numerous photographs of plants in habitat or in cultivation and fine botanical paintings, often commissioned for the cover, enrich the text. Lively travelogues give a sense of discovery, while (friendly) instructions on cultivation, propagation, and pest control encourage a safe immersion in the world of succulents. 

CSJ is essential reading for all hobbyists and students of cacti and succulents, botanists, alpha-taxonomists, ecologists, conservationists, professional growers, and florists on the edge. 

Journals are $15, with $6 flat rate shipping in the US and $18 flat rate shipping international. Become a Standard Member of CSSA and receive your quarterly Journal as part of your membership perks.
