Succulent Matters with Matthew #4: Matthew Goes to the Largest Cactus & Succulent Show in the US 

Succulent enthusiast Matthew, 10, attends the largest cactus & succulent show in the US, held annually at the Los Angeles Arboretum. He exclaims with delight when he sees the plants on exhibit, catches an error in nomenclature, and zeros in on succulents he hasn't see before. Then, he goes shopping. In the vendor area, Matthew gives a book to Peter Walkowiak and learns a seed collecting technique from Petra Crist---two of many succulent growers and experts at the show. Produced by Debra Lee Baldwin, who has unofficially adopted Matthew as her "Number Two Grandson," and who authored Designing with Succulents, Succulent Container Gardens, and Succulents Simplified. www.debraleebaldwin.com.
