Excerpt from Cactus Guide

I was born far from any desert region; but when my father first brought home a golden spined barrel cactus, a craving for more of its kind possessed me. It left an indelible mark in my heart. It was not until 1927, however, that I realized what part cactus plants would play in my later life and what enjoyment they would bring me. It was then that I started working in the famous Missouri Botanical Garden where a fine collection of cacti was maintained. I was given an opportunity to work with the plants under my father's tutelage. Soon I was making cuttings, propagating by seed, and even grafting the plants.
