Any good books on the genus Echinopsis?
Any good books on the genus Echinopsis?
Does anyone happen to know any good books on the genus Echinopsis? I've developed a bit of an obsession and want to read up on them.
Re: Any good books on the genus Echinopsis?
Species or hybrids? Also do you mean Echinopsis sensu stricto, or sensu lat. that is containing Trichocereus and Lobivia?
For the species I can only think of the very expensive general works on cacti. Some books may be out of print, but you can often find them secondhand on EBAY.
For the hybrids I found these, none of the books have I read:-
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Echinopsis-Hyb ... 0956169805
Think this one is in German though:-
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Echinopsis-Ron ... B007MOG5HO
There is a web site:-
