August Program:
Doug Dawson: “Namaqualand, South Africa” Our speaker for August will be Doug Dawson. Doug is a retired teacher who lives in the Phoenix area, and is very active in all things succulent there. He is particularly fond of the small low growing succulents of South Africa, in particular Lithops. Doug was part of a group that traveled in South Africa last September and his program is “Namaqualand, South Africa”. This magical place with the most diverse populations of succulent plants on earth provides a wonderful backdrop for a very educational and interesting program. We will meet in the normal place, the Palm Room, even though the Intercity show will be undergoing setup.
