Lecture: Dudleya, California’s Unique Succulent

ABDNHA Library 652 Palm Canyon Drive, Borrego Springs

Speaker: Jeff Moore, Author, Owner of Solana Succulents 
Dudleya are beautiful succulents native to California, with some occurrences in northern Baja, Mexico, and Oregon. Jeff’s presentation will cover most of the currently described species in California and Baja, following the flow of his new book, co-written with Jeremy Spath and Kelly Griffin.

Dudleya are found in some of the most stunning locations along the California coast—complete with cliffside backdrops and vast ocean vistas, and their photographs are breathtaking, as Jeff will share during the presentation. Jeff first became interested in Dudleya when he saw some at the San Diego County Fair in the early 1980s. He began selling them in his spare time, which eventually led to the opening of Solana Succulents in 1992. GP $12, M $10, V $8. Register online or at the Nature Center by calling 760-767-3098.
