I’ve been in San Diego all week, first visiting a few gardens, then attending the 2025 Biennial Convention of the Cactus and Succulent Society of America (CSSA) – four jam-packed days of garden tours and talks from world-renowned experts. It’s been a tiring week, but in a good way. I’ll have more posts in the weeks to come, but here’s a quick teaser of what I’ve seen so far.

I’ve met some really interesting people, and I’ve also done a little bit of plant shopping. OK, more than a little, but in my defense, some of the plants I’m bringing home are for other people.
