Benefits of being a member of the AMO
The idea of being part of a partnership born of the need

There are several sections in different parts of the
country, and therefore can know the species and hybrids that
are more conducive to grow in every region of Mexico. In
Mexico City, the members meet on the first Wednesday of each
month in the auditorium of the Botanical Garden of the UNAM.
At these meetings live plants that are carried by the
partners, and on them their taxonomic status, place of
origin and their needs and recommendations are presented
crop reports. So, month after month you acquire knowledge
