of Cacti and Succulents.
Greetings from Hungary!
My name is Zoltan Varga, I live in Hungary. I have been collecting
succulents for 20 years. I took part an botanical expedition in Peru in the
autumn of 2005. We drove 4500 km across the Peruvian Andes during six weeks.
I made a photo-DVD from this travel. It
includes about 4000 hi-res photos from Peruvian cacti and landscapes.
This DVD (and as a plus bonus my stone-roses photo collection) is orderable
in my e-mail address:
