Philadelphia Cactus & Succulent Society
The Philadelphia Cactus & Succulent Society was founded on November 15, 1942, to help Delaware Valley cactus and succulent hobbyists learn about these unusual plants in order to grow them better. For 82 years they have held a monthly in-person meeting, from September through June. Their first exhibit at the Philadelphia Flower Show was in 1956, and they are proud to have become a permanent fixture at the Flower Show since 1968. In the past few years, they have expanded our outreach via Facebook and Instagram, so growers can post photos and brag about well-grown plants, ask questions about plant problems, or ask the identity of an unknown plant.
