Moore, Jeff -  Under the Spell of Succulents
A marvellous collection of photos which show the beauty that can be found in the succulent plant world – primarily in the other succulents. The author is a Californian nurseryman, and the size and colouration of many of the plants are beyond what can be achieved in less suitable climates. But maybe with climate change who knows! Meanwhile we can enjoy the author’s eye for a good photo showing their colour, form and uses and maybe get a few ideas to experiment with and look at our plants with fresh eyes. 10 x 9 ½ 2014 244 pages.

Rowley, Gordon -  Succulents in cultivation - breeding new cultivars
Gordon’s books have always covered interesting and important subjects which have been overlooked previously, and this one continues the tradition. Some cacti and succulents have been hybridised or attractive forms selected for a long time, and he explains how this has come about. A large part of the book surveys the results achieved, and if you would like to try yourself to produce new and striking plants he explains the various way to try it – you don’t have to be a large multinational conglomerate for some of the methods which amateurs have successfully used in the past! Illustrated with many colour photos. 11 x 9 ¼ 248 pages 2017

Rowley, Gordon -  Teratopia
Gordon’s intriguingly titled book on the oddities in the succulent plant world. He’s coined the word Teratopia (taken from an historic term) to cover all the abnormal plant forms - cristates, monstrous, chimeras all the other unusual forms that seem to be more commonly produced in succulent plants. And it is a fascinating book. As you’d expect Gordon provides the latest information on what causes these growth forms, and the remaining mysteries to be solved. Both habitat and cultivated plants are covered, with a section on special needs in cultivation for these plants. Whilst it has much information, the bulk of the book is a visual tour with colour photos of these plants in habitat and cultivation, supplied by many people across the world, with an enormous range of forms from all the succulent genera where they occur. As usual from Cactus & Co, the book is tremendous value, and its appeal won’t be just to those who are currently enthusiasts for these plants, but also to those who are succulent enthusiasts and those who would like a greater understanding of how plants develop and grow. 2006 12 x 8 ½ 287 pages
