PC20 Doc. 16.3 Annex 2
PC20 Doc. 16.3 Annex 2 ASSESSMENT OF TRADE IN EPIPHYTIC CACTI AND REVIEW OF LISTING OF CACTACEAE SPP. IN APPENDIX II 1. This document has been prepared by Mr James Grogan under contract with the CITES Secretariat.1 2. Background information can be found in two key CITES documents: CoP15 Doc. 55, submitted by the Management Authority of Switzerland, describes the issue under consideration in this report, whether certain genera of epiphytic cacti (seven as listed below) should be excluded from Appendix II based on the preponderance of artificially propagated compared to wild- collected specimens in international trade; IUCN Red List conservation status is reviewed, and trade data for gross exports of wild-collected specimens from range nations during 1975–2008 are presented; PC19 Doc. 14.1, prepared by the Chair of the Working Group on the Periodic Review with assistance from the Scientific Authority of Mexico, presents further analysis of trade data during 1998–2008 including the number of specimens of epiphytic cacti in trade that were artificially propagated, number of records and specimens that were wild collected, confiscated or seized, or of unknown origin during this period, and geographic ranges of species in question. Natural range, morphology & taxonomy of the epiphytic cacti 3. The Cactaceae are a New World family except for one species, the epiphytic Rhipsalis baccifera, which is also found in Africa, Madagascar and as far east as Sri Lanka. Seven genera are considered here: Disocactus, Epiphyllum, Hatiora, Lepismium, PseudoRhipsalis, Rhipsalis, and Schlumbergera. 4. These genera are grouped in two tribes of the subfamily Cactoideae within the Cactaceae family: Hylocereeae: Disocactus, Epiphyllum, PseudoRhipsalis Rhipsalideae: Hatiora, Lepismium, Rhipsalis, Schlumbergera 5. -
Easter Lily Cactus (Echinopsis Eyriesii, Native to Bolivia and Neighboring Countries.)
How to Care for this Easter Lily Cactus (Echinopsis eyriesii, native to Bolivia and neighboring countries.) This little cactus has a long legacy—its great-grandparent was given to the grower in 1968, and these plants were featured in the Los Angeles Times: http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/home_blog/2010/05/easter-lily-cactus-echinopsis-eyriesii-echinopsis- oxygona.html *With proper care, it will grow and give you incredibly beautiful flowers off and on April–Sept. *Flowers are over 6-8 inches tall and about 4 inches across with a delicate scent. *Unwrap cactus; if you cannot plant immediately, set upright in shallow bowl of water so bottom is wet and put out in the sun or in a sunny window—wear gloves to protect from spines. *A wide bowl is the best shape for planting; the cactus will grow to the size of a mini- watermelon or big cantaloupe in a few years! I use Fiskars 14” Terrabowls available from Amazon.com, about $12. Buds or “pups” often form and grow around the sides of the plant. You can leave them or gently break them off and plant them, once they are at least 1-2” in diameter. *Miracle Gro Cactus & Citrus Potting Soil is good, holding enough moisture but providing drainage—however, other potting soils are fine too. *Once night time temps drop below 40 degrees, keep the plant inside, in a sunny south- facing window. (They can be out year-round in milder climates). Baby plants should be watered once a week as they are just developing roots. -

CACTUS CORNER NEWS Fresno Cactus & Succulent Society http://www.fresnocss.com Affiliated with the Cactus & Succulent Society of America Vol. 38 No. 11 November 2020 Still NO In Person Meetings...Please stay safe and try to stay active in some way. Remember if you need something we are a club so just reach out. Hope to see you soon! From our Speaker this month: Jeff Moore; I have owned and operated Solana Succulents - a small specialty succulent nursery - near San Diego for over 28 years. I have self-published 4 succulent books over the past 6 years - Spiny Succulents is my most recent. Married with two grown sons. Spiny Succulents. The talk and powerpoint will follow the flow of the book. I'll show images and talk about the primarily spiny succu- lents in cultivation: euphorbias, cacti, pachypodiums, alluaudias, fouquierias, and even a few spiny semi- succulent plants such as terrestrial bromeliads and cy- cads. I will talk about growing tips and take any ques- tions as we go (hopefully with the help of the moderator/ host). If anyone wants to buy the book before or after the talk, it can be purchased off of my website: www.solanasucculents.com. FROM THE PREZ... Hi Members, The end of the year is fast approaching and what a year has it been! This also means that winter is coming. We have already started to feel it with recent nighttime temperatures. This is always a stressful time of year when people begin worrying about their plants and what to do with them. It’s even worse when you purchased too many over the summer and don’t know where to put them. -
