At Plantarium 2017 there was a moment of attention for our Italian agent Matteo Ragni. He recently published a book on cacti, titled Pelle di Spine. This beautiful book was handed out to longtime Plantipp-connection Jean Pouillart of Globe Planter from France and  to grower Enrico Ciarocchi of Ciarocchi Vivai from Italy. Both gentlemen were very pleased with this nice present. We wish Matteo a lot of success with his book!
