PLANT EXCHANGE!
We will be having another plant exchange at the next meeting. Feel free to bring ANY plant you wish (last meeting the Lavender that Bonnie brought was popular).
HAS IT BEEN A CENTURY ALREADY?
The century plant (Agave americanus) on the corner of Pryor and Olive, across the street from the church where we meet is getting ready to bloom. It is sending up its shoot rapidly, about 3 feet in one day! This is in the yard of Alice Hargreaves and is the descendent of the plant her father had bloom in his yard 56 years ago in Stockton. That one was a descendent of one Alice's grandfather had years before that. Come watch it grow.

Membership in the Bakersfield Cactus & Succulent Society costs $10 per year for an individual and only $15 a year for a family. This extraordinarily reasonable price not only includes twelve issues of The Cactus Patch but entitles you to participate in club field trips to far-off (out-of-town) and exotic places (more exotic than Bakersfield). You will also receive a nifty name tag that will be your ticket to the members only plant raffle held every meeting featuring the best plant from the raffle table! All this is in addition to the wonderful programs and people at the meetings.
