British Cactus and Succulent Society Southampton Branch

Founded in 1954 by Peter Down (President of the branch). The Southampton branch also incorporates the former Bournemouth and New Forest branches. In 2014 the branch celebrates 60 years of mutual improvement in the fascinating and varied world of cacti and succulent cultivation. Many of our members have visited plants in habitat and everyone has one thing in common; a passion for growing cacti and succulents.
