Utah is world-renowned for its uniquely varied landscapes, and is home to dramatic mountain ranges and expansive deserts. The state is also a hotspot for plant diversity and plant endemism, and the cactus family makes no exception; six of our species can only be found in Utah. These unique plants are permanent and iconic symbols of the American West, occupying nearly every habitat type across the state.
The Cactus Flora of Utah is the state’s first comprehensive treatment of this charismatic group, and has been rigorously prepared for over a decade. The resulting product will be useful and interesting to professional botanists, as well as the most casual of cactus buffs. Countless hours and off-road miles were necessary to gather data to produce detailed descriptions as well as beautiful photographs of every species in flower. All 44 taxa (species and varieties) are thoroughly treated, accompanied by detailed maps and more than 350 images depicting the plants in their native habitat. Additionally, species checklists for Utah’s National Parks and Monuments are included, making this the ultimate companion for any cactophile’s travels across the state.
10% of profits from sales will be committed to a research fund, with the goal of supporting projects investigating cactus diversity in Utah.
October, 2025. 328 pages, 6.5 x 9 inches. Printed by AZ Litho in Tuscon, Arizona.
