he aim of International Succulent Introductions is to propagate and
distribute new or rare succulents to collectors, nurseries and institutions
to further research and appreciation of these remarkable plants. Field-collected
plants, cuttings or seeds are not sold. Only seedlings, grafts and rooted
cuttings are produced under nursery conditions without detriment to
wild populations. Income is used solely to support this program. An
annual offering (mail-order only, discontinued each year after September
1) appears in each March-April issue of the Cactus and Succulent Journal
and on this website.
The ISI is the plant introduction program of the Huntington, a non-profit,
501(c)(3) organization. The ISI subsidizes its annual listing in the Journal
by paying for advertising space (reduced to half the per-page ad rate
because of the educational, scientific and conservation value of the list).
Charitable contributions to the Huntington’s ISI program are welcome.
