Here you'll find details about the Society, about membership, and about our Journal and Annual Meetings and Shows.

We try to feature a different species of Mammillaria, Coryphantha, Escobaria or Thelocactus each month, and sometimes these include newly described species.

February UPDATE!! 

• A new Mammillaria of the Month - Mammillaria aureilanata

• Don't forget about our Back Issues on DVD

• Make sure you have put these dates in your diary for 2012

• Annual Meeting - Saturday 26th May 2012 at the RHS Wisley (free entry for members)
• Mammillaria Society Show and Lecture (hosted by Oxford BCSS Branch) - July 15th 2012 at Witney
  

We hope you will share our delight in this genus of plants, that stretches from Central America and the Caribbean through all of Mexico and deep into the Western States of the USA.

New discoveries are being made all the time, and this web site will feature them once described in the appropriate Journal.

Please also visit the Mammillaria Forum to talk with other Mammillaria enthusiasts in the UK and around the world, but do please note that while this is supported by the Society it is not run by us.
