SOLANA BEACH SUCCULENT SPECIALIST EXPANDS REACH
San Diego, CA – Jeff Moore, owner and specialist at Solana Succulents, produced two stunning compilations of photographs and information on succulent plants: Under the Spell of Succulents in 2014 and more recently Aloes and Agaves in Cultivation. The books have been available locally sold through a few bookstores and nurseries in addition to Solana Succulents’ store and website. Now partnered with Sunbelt Publications for distribution, these jaw-dropingly beautiful works are available to retailers and consumers nation-wide through wholesalers, big box stores, and online retailers.
“We would have loved to have published both of Jeff’s books,” says Sunbelt’s Production Manager, Debi Young. “The timing and finances just didn’t line up. We’re extremely impressed with what Moore has accomplished on his own and are pleased to be able to offer these works to the many wholesalers and retailers we work with.”
Under the Spell of Succulents: A Sampler of the Diversity of Succulents in Cultivation is filled with information on the “fascinating botanical subculture,” major succulent categories, and the many ways to interact with these wonderful plants. Its biggest selling point is the stunning photographs of the beautiful and bizarre plants, taken mostly by the author.
Aloes and Agaves in Cultivation, which Moore released in May of this year, tackles the specific subject of using these plants in Mediterranean landscaping, with most examples coming from California landscapes. With even more photographs than its predecessor, it certainly rivals that book in beauty. Moore advises his distributor, “Show people the book. They’ll buy it.”
Both books are now available through sources locally and nationally in time for holiday shopping.
