Hello from England U.K

[CactusMad]

Hello everyone,I am new here but have been collecting cacti and the odd succulent for about a year now.I am pretty obsessed about them really.I can't have a greenhouse till next summer so my plants occupy south facing window sills and i take them out if it isn't raining to get plenty of sun.Which i can tell you is no mean feat seeing as some are upstairs too and i have approx 40.It gets rather tedious at times but I am committed to their well being.Not going to mention if it starts to rain.the neighbours must think i'm a crazy woman.

Hi welcome,

Where about in England are you?

There is often a BCSS branch locally:-

There are also quite a few cactus shows open to the public throughout the year, though it is getting late in the year now for shows:-

You may also find Cactus Mall handy for finding cactus nurseries, seedsmen and useful web pages etc:-

You don't have to be mad to grow cacti, but it helps!
