Aloe, Cactus and Succulent Society of Zimbabwe has an extensive Seed Bank.When it is operating, the Seed Bank is available to Local members only.

DUE TO SHORTAGES OF SEED, WE REGRET TO ADVISE THAT THE SEEDBANK IS CURRENTLY IN HIBERNATION

ACSSZ SEED BANK RULES:

1. Maximum order: 10 species at a time

2. Charge : $1 per order

3. Email orders (in alphabetical order please) to Hans Wolbert at wolbertjga@gmail.com. You will need to collect upon notification.

4. All recipients are asked to return a germination report form (provided)


The Seed Bank, is currently in action! Some are in abundant supply while others are extremely short. We are still, however, desperately short of fresh seed. Please check your gardens and keep your eyes peeled for seeds on your outings. Place whatever seeds you find in an envelope labelled with the species and whether collected in a garden or in the wild and pass them to a committee member.
