Travel with us from Mexico City to Oaxaca during a cactus lecture at Hortus Overzee.

On July 11th from 1:30 PM, Coby and Anjo from Groningen will take you to the south of Mexico. They will share a succulent journey filled with cacti, landscapes, and unique plants. Discover how succulents grow there and experience Mexico through their story.

Discover special plants

During this lecture, you will get a glimpse into the world of succulents. The Succulent Society is organizing the afternoon at Hortus Overzee. You will learn more about plants that adapt to dry conditions, so you can take new knowledge home with you.

Come and get to know us in an informal way.

Is this your first time? Then admission is free. After that, you pay 4 euros per visit. You can participate for a year for 20 euros. Admission to Hortus Overzee is also free this afternoon.

Visit the Hortus as well.

The lecture takes place at Hortus Overzee on Soembastraat. Combine your visit with a stroll through the Hortus. This way, you turn the afternoon into a green journey of discovery. Come along and let yourself be surprised by the world of succulents.
