Two important new C&S books now in stock

Post by daiv »

The reprint of the New Cactus Lexicon Illustrations book is just in:

And the reprint of the Agave book by Pilbeam. Which came out about two months ago and they said the pictures were not good. I got the new ones in today and comparing the old one and the new one, I can't imagine how they convinced the printers to reprint the whole batch and mail out replacements at their own expense. Anyway, the old copies could not be sold, but the new ones can and they are in stock:

As an added bonus there is a nice little book on Fouquieria (Ocotillo)

I assume you mean NOW in stock instead of NOT in stock, right? :)

The agave book is great for IDs. It is a gallery of pictures of most agaves with minimal text about habitats, cold tolerance, etc. Not good if you are looking specifically for Cuban and other rarely seen tropical agaves, but then who is?
