We are so pleased and honoured to welcome Edwina Pfendbach to our BCSS Talks series. She is a very experienced and highly knowledgeable speaker.
For fifty years, Edwina has crafted her sixth floor 60m² roof terrace into a cactus and succulent garden − despite all the challenges of climate and other growing conditions in Germany. She drew inspiration from her worldwide travels, her many years of active involvement on the board of the Deutsche Kakteen Gesellschaft (DKG), in local groups and in the International Stapeliad Group (ISG)
Edwina says, “During a trip through Ecuador in 2012, I learned a lot about the local flora. Ecuador is a very small country but I was impressed by the diversity of plants, which is influenced by the geographical location and the resulting climatic conditions. The trip started in Guayaquil and led south-east to Catamayo, from there northwards, via Cuenca and Puyo to Quito. I would like to take this opportunity to present the highlights."
This promises to be a fascinating talk. Try not to miss it!
