Mammillaria National Collections

Two of our Society members have now gained National Collection status in 2010, under the accreditation scheme run by Plant Heritage.

These are the collections of Mark Masterson (Isle of Bute, Scotland) and Chris Davies (Amersham,Buckinghamshire). This page is the link for details of these Collections, and the first to feature here is that of Mark Masterson, our Seed Distributor.

There has been for many years a National Mammillaria Collection at Abbey Brook cactus nursery. These two new National Collections differ in that they are built as far as is possible from seed from  known field collections and from nursery grown plants with a known provenance.
