BCSS   Zone 9


The British Cactus & Succulent Society (BCSS) has around 90 branches which are organised into zones. Zone 9 comprises four branches, each with their own web site with full details of branch activities:

Our zone representative is John Foster.

We hold a one day convention each year in April, and a bi-annual cactus mart.

Zone 9 Cactus Mart

There was no cactus mart in 2009.
The Neeld Hall has become prohibitively expensive and we are still looking for a suitable alternative venue.
