Dear growers of succulent plants

35th list of cacti and other succulents continues in tradition of all previous ones and I hope you will find here interesting items. We had no time for e-shop in last few years but all is construction and paper work process is finished now. Our new greenhouses with area over 1000 m2 are 9 km from Prague in Úžice village.

All plants are propagated in cultivation from our own mother plants or they come from the registered nurseries and specialists all over the world. The botanical potential is strictly controlled and locality data are provided when available. Plants are offered under the names which are believed to be true for the species. Our main aim is to reproduce plants which are gradually destroyed in nature and to introduce them to cultivation. We will inform you about the opening times on our web site or you can arrange your individual visit by telephone.

You can see our catalogue at the internet address http://www.palkowitschia.cz. We try to add photos of plants we sell. This web site also contains a list of specimen plants, literature, photos from our travels, pumice and lava offers and other interesting information. We do not sell seeds. New items will be offered at internet during the year. So, watch it regularly. E-mail is the best way for communication and we will response as soon as possible. Please contact us at pavelka@palkowitschia.cz.

Travel agency Palkowitschia is helping to organize trips to natural habitats of cacti and succulents, mainly to South Africa, Namibia, Mexico, Madagascar, Chile, Kenya but we co-operate with specialists in other countries so we should be able to provide you offer for other countries too. Keep asking…

We wish you pleasant time with succulents.
