The editor's desk:
Friends, colleagues, enthusiasts of cacti and other succulents!
The current issue was opened with large delay: May 1, 2008 instead of August, 2007. Nevertheless we open it for you. The delay was called by the termination of active coordination from the Cultivar founder Valery Kalishev. In the further project will be supported by forces of the remaining staff.
Now we celebrate our 7 years jubilee (August 24, 2007). During these 7 years there appeared 40 issues of the magazine containing 270 articles on different topics with reference to cacti and other succulents, especially their unusual forms. These articles were written by scientists, biologists, prominent hobbyists from all over the world.
Today we heartily thank all our authors who sent us the photos, texts, observations on their plants and helped us make this magazine attractive and informative. We'd like to wish you good luck in your wonderful hobby!
We invite you to send us photographs of your plants (with or without names), especially of colored and flowering cultivars. Your stories about cultivars from your collection are enthusiastically welcome! The most interesting information and photos will be published in the next issues of our magazine. There are many puzzles in this amazing world of cultivars which are yet to be solved and your photos and stories may be a valuable contribution to the studies of these astonishing plants. We heartily thank all the readers who sent us stories and photos of interesting plants from their collections. You are always welcome!
