The Colorado Cactus and Succulent Society invites you to the CSSA 39th Biennial Convention in beautiful downtown Colorado Springs, Colorado.

There will be excellent speakers, plant and pottery vendors, live auction, and silent auction, local sales area, an opening reception, and awards banquet.

As always, the convention program will include national and international renowned speakers on cactus and succulent topics of interest to all attendees. Comradery with old and new friends, field trips to visit remarkable gardens along the Front Range, visits to wild cactus populations and trips that can include the Cog railway to the top of Pikes Peak, Manitou Springs, the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, the Broadmoor Air Force Academy and much more. Our traditional welcome evening, banquet, plant auction and, of course, world class vendors with both common and rare cacti and succulents for sale.
