August Speaker - Jewels of the Brazilian Highlands by Dylan Zoller
Dylan grew up in Laguna Beach with a strong interest in exotic cultivated plants. At the time, starting with palms, cacti, and succulents. Since then has been growing a variety of plants, many of which are terrestrial/xeric bromeliads. Now working at Sherman Botanical Gardens, he maintains the Succulent and Bromeliad gardens and their associated off display collections. Dylan has as well traveled extensively throughout eastern Brazil, Ecuador, and Colombia.
The talk will cover some seldom photographed cacti and succulent bromeliad species, as well as some other oddities, from eastern Brazil.
