The Chileans is a specialist group set up for enthusiasts of South American cacti. At first it concentrated on the cacti of Chile but now has articles on cacti from the whole of South America.

The Chileans
The 50 page Journal is published once or twice a year depending on the availability of material. A subscription covers 3 editions and all back numbers are available.

The articles cover a wide range of topics, often going into a subject to more depth than less specialist journals. Look at this example.

Sample Article
There are occasional offers of plants, mainly from documented sources. If you want to be added to the mailing list, please E-mail your postal address to us. This service is only available within the European Community.

A weekend event takes place at a central venue in England every year usually in September where various speakers present illustrated lectures. The emphasis is on travels in South America.
