Intermountain Cactus
Intermountain Cactus
Located in the foothills of the Wasatch Mountains in Kaysville, Utah (a small town located between Salt Lake City and Ogden), Intermountain Cactus has specialized in winter hardy cactus, agaves, and yuccas since 1976. Our cactus can be seen in every state of the US including Alaska and Hawaii, as well as Canada, Sweden, Norway and Denmark.
Continually seeking new winter hardy cactus collections and blossom colors, we have succeeded in cultivating new varieties of Opuntias (Prickly Pears) with different colored flowers and unusual spines; Pediocactus with its many varieties; Sclerocactus (The forgotten genus) with its hooked spines; Echinocereus (Barrel cactus); and cactus from South America, specifically from Patagonia in Argentina. We also grow two agaves from seed, Agave Utahensis Var. Eborispina with its white spines and Agave Havardiana with its blue leaves. In addition, we grow Joshua Trees as well as two dwarf yuccas, Yucca Harrimaniae and Yucca Nana.
If you’re new to growing winter hardy cactus, a good place to begin is with the 3rd edition of John Spain’s book GROWING WINTER HARDY CACTUS IN COLD/WET CLIMATES. John Spain lives in Connecticut and has been growing cactus since 1965. The book lists 25 of John's favorite cactus as well as an assortment of color photos of winter hardy cactus. The book also teaches the fundamentals of preparing a cactus garden.
This book is a must have and we highly recommend it to both the novice as well as experienced cactus growers. $24.95 (includes postage)
We accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express.
We are excited about this years new offerings and hope you'll enjoy perusing 2013’s price list. We also welcome trades.
Enjoy your winter hardy cactus this year!
