仙人掌与多肉植物商城(The Cactus and Succulent Plant Mall,简称 CSPM)是由 Suzanne Mace 与 Tony Mace 夫妇于 1996 年在英国创办的仙人掌与多肉植物专题互联网资源聚合门户。截至当前,CSPM 索引了 230 余个相关域名,加上 CACTUS-Mall 内部 52 个子站以及 131 家广告合作苗圃,是全球仙人掌与多肉植物爱好者最常用的资源检索入口之一。站点面向浏览者完全免费,不销售植物、种子或书籍,仅通过网站托管与横幅广告获得运营资金。
资源聚合门户简介
CSPM 的核心定位是仙人掌与多肉植物领域的资源目录与导航站点,按国家、专题与运营机构三个维度对全球相关网站进行归类。站点首页以表格化的链接矩阵呈现 14 个主要板块,包括 NURSERIES(苗圃)、PICTURES(图库)、NATIONAL SOCIETIES(国家级协会)、SPECIALIST SOCIETIES(专科协会)、GARDENS WITH CACTUS AND SUCCULENT COLLECTIONS(专题植物园)、CACTUS AND SUCCULENT CLUBS(地方俱乐部)、BOOKS(书籍)、HOMEPAGES(爱好者个人主页)、HOMEPAGES ON SPECIFIC GENERA(按属分组的爱好者主页)、FACEBOOK PAGES、YOU TUBE CHANNELS、PINTEREST BOARDS、CDROMS 与 STAMPS 等专题模块。CSPM 每月还通过 NEW ITEMS 板块列出近期新增资源,并在英国国家花园计划(NGS)开放日对外开放实态收藏展示。
核心资源与目录
CSPM 索引的资源涵盖全球数十家国家级协会与数百家专业苗圃。国家级协会列表包括英国 Cactus and Succulent Society、美国 Cactus and Succulent Society of America、意大利 Cactus & Co.、澳大利亚 Cactus and Succulent Society of Australia Inc.、以色列 Cactus and Succulent Society of Israel、马耳他、新西兰、阿根廷 CCCRC、法国 A.R.I.D.E.S.、奥地利 Gesellschaft Österreichischer Kakteenfreunde 等。专科协会涵盖 Mesemb Study Group(番杏科研究组)、International Asclepiad Society(萝藦科国际协会)、International Euphorbia Society(大戟科国际协会)、The Haworthia Society(十二卷协会)、The Mammillaria Society(乳突球属协会)、The Tephrocactus Study Group、International Sansevieria Society、The Sedum Society(景天属协会)、The International Geraniaceae Group、AG Echinopsis-Hybriden、Freundeskreis ECHINOPSEEN 等专业团体。苗圃板块按地域分为英国苗圃、欧洲苗圃、美国与加拿大苗圃、欧洲与北美以外苗圃四个列表,并单列种子供应商、适合高山与球根花卉的苗圃、适合凤梨科苗圃、适合食虫植物苗圃与适合苏铁科苗圃等专项来源。
园艺内容与栽培知识
CSPM 在资源聚合之外,还托管由 Mace 夫妇撰写的原创栽培与病虫害防治技术文档,作为门户对爱好者社区的延伸服务。ENVIRONMENT(栽培环境)章节讨论温室选址、光照管理与温控策略,指出仙人掌与多肉植物大多原产于光照充足的高海拔或亚高山地区,欧洲与北美偏北纬地区需要玻璃或透明塑料大棚补光,并使用双层或三层中空塑料覆盖以增强保温;PROPAGATION(繁殖)章节系统讲解播种、扦插与嫁接三种主要繁殖方式,包括土壤消毒、播种温度(21℃ 左右最佳)、对 Mesembryanthemaceae 属(如生石花)种子需光不覆土的特殊处理、单叶繁殖适用于 Sansevieria、Gasteria 与部分 Echeveria 的原理;PESTS(病虫害)章节详细分析介壳虫、粉蚧、红蜘蛛、真菌性腐烂(damping off)与 Agave Snout Weevil(龙舌兰象鼻虫)的物理、生物与化学综合防治方案;CONSERVATION(保护)章节阐述 CITES 法规对人工繁殖与流通的实际影响,并链接至 WCMC(世界保护监测中心)作为权威延伸阅读。
域名托管与社区服务
CSPM 同时提供网站托管、域名注册与横幅广告等运营服务,已为全球超过 230 个相关组织托管网页,每年广告位与建站服务费用公开透明(横幅 30 英镑/30 美元/30 欧元/年,独立站点 40 英镑/50 美元/50 欧元/年起,包含设计与链接)。Mace 夫妇在站点首页明确表示因工作量增长已不再回复个人栽培或鉴定问题,建议前往英国 Cactus and Succulent Society 论坛讨论。CSPM 还维护 STAMPS(仙人掌主题邮票)、CLUB BADGES(俱乐部徽章收藏)、HOME PAGES(爱好者个人主页评级)、CACTI AND SUCCULENT INDECES(互联网其他索引服务)以及 CDROMS(早期电子出版物)等小众但延续多年的专题板块,形成完整覆盖文献、图片、社区与商业实体的仙人掌与多肉植物资料生态。
The Cactus and Succulent Plant Mall (CSPM) is an Internet resource aggregator for all growers of cacti and succulents, founded by Suzanne and Tony Mace in 1996 in the United Kingdom. Originally hosted at cactus-mall.com and currently migrated to cactus-mall.org.uk on Hostinger infrastructure, the portal remains actively maintained by the Mace family as of 2025. The directory indexes 230+ relevant domains, plus 52 sub-sites within CACTUS-Mall and 131 advertising partner nurseries, making it one of the most widely used entry points for global cactus and succulent enthusiasts. The site is completely free to browse and does not sell plants, seeds, or books; operating funds come from web hosting services and banner advertising partnerships.
Resource Aggregator Overview
CSPM is fundamentally a directory and navigation hub for the cactus and succulent field, organising relevant websites globally along three dimensions: country, specialty topic, and operating organisation. The home page presents a tabular link matrix covering 14 main sections: NURSERIES, PICTURES, NATIONAL SOCIETIES, SPECIALIST SOCIETIES, GARDENS WITH CACTUS AND SUCCULENT COLLECTIONS, CACTUS AND SUCCULENT CLUBS, BOOKS, HOMEPAGES, HOMEPAGES ON SPECIFIC GENERA, FACEBOOK PAGES, YOU TUBE CHANNELS, PINTEREST BOARDS, CDROMS, and STAMPS. The portal updates a NEW ITEMS section monthly, and the Mace family opens their physical collection to the public under the UK National Gardens Scheme (NGS) open days each year.
Core Resources and Directory
CSPM indexes dozens of national societies and hundreds of specialist nurseries worldwide. The national society list includes the British Cactus and Succulent Society, the Cactus and Succulent Society of America, Cactus & Co. (Italy), the Cactus and Succulent Society of Australia Inc., the Cactus and Succulent Society of Israel, the Cactus and Succulent Society of Malta, the Cactus and Succulent Society of New Zealand, the Circulo de Coleccionistas de Cactus y Crasas de la Republica Argentina, A.R.I.D.E.S. (France), the Gesellschaft Österreichischer Kakteenfreunde (Austria), the Asociaciòn Amigos de los cactus y otras succulentas (Spain), the Aloe, Cactus & Succulent Society of Zimbabwe, and the Cactus and Succulent Society of Indonesia. Specialist societies include the Mesemb Study Group, the International Asclepiad Society, the International Euphorbia Society, The Haworthia Society, The Mammillaria Society, The Tephrocactus Study Group, the International Sansevieria Society, The Sedum Society, The International Geraniaceae Group, AG Echinopsis-Hybriden, Freundeskreis ECHINOPSEEN, the Arbeitskreis für Mammillarienfreunde (AfM), and the Fachgruppe Sempervivum/Jovibarba. The nursery section is divided by region: UK Nurseries, European Nurseries, American & Canadian Nurseries, Nurseries outside Europe & North America, plus separate seed sources, alpine and bulb nurseries, bromeliad sources, carnivorous plant sources, and cycad sources.
Horticultural Content and Cultivation
Beyond resource aggregation, CSPM hosts original cultivation and pest management articles written by the Mace family. The ENVIRONMENT section discusses greenhouse siting, light management, and temperature control, noting that cacti and succulents mostly originate in high-altitude or subalpine environments with abundant light, and that growers at higher latitudes in Europe or North America require glass or transparent plastic greenhouse coverage plus double- or triple-wall plastic sheeting for insulation. The PROPAGATION section systematically explains seed sowing, cuttings, and grafting, including soil sterilisation, optimal germination temperature (around 21°C), the special requirement for Mesembryanthemaceae seeds (e.g., Lithops) needing light and no covering, and leaf cutting viability for Sansevieria, Gasteria, and certain Echeveria species. The PESTS section analyses mealy bugs, scale insects, red spider mites, damping-off fungal rot, and the Agave Snout Weevil with integrated physical, biological, and chemical management strategies. The CONSERVATION section addresses the practical impact of CITES regulations on artificial propagation and trade, linking to the World Conservation Monitoring Centre (WCMC) for authoritative extended reading.
Domain Hosting and Community Services
CSPM additionally provides web hosting, domain registration, and banner advertising services for the global cactus and succulent community, having hosted pages for over 230 relevant organisations. Annual pricing is published transparently (banner ads at £30/30 US$/30€ per year, individual websites from £40/50 US$/50€ per year including design and inbound linking). The Mace family explicitly note on the home page that due to workload growth they no longer answer individual cultivation or identification questions, redirecting visitors to the British Cactus and Succulent Society forum for community discussion. CSPM also maintains smaller but long-running specialty sections including STAMPS (cactus-themed postage stamps), CLUB BADGES (society badge collection), HOME PAGES (personal enthusiast homepage ratings), CACTI AND SUCCULENT INDECES (other Internet index services), and CDROMS (early electronic publications), forming a complete information ecology spanning literature, imagery, community, and commercial entities within the cactus and succulent hobby.
