The PBPCS is a chapter of the
International Palm Society.
Our purpose is to further the scientific and educational study of palms and cycads, their propagation, culture, conservation, care and development. Also, to promote public interest, preservation, distribution of palms and cycads, and to be inclusive of all those who desire the same.
The Palm Beach Palm and Cycad Society members meets year round, on the 1st Wednesday of each month at Mounts Botanical Garden. The meetings are open to everyone. If you are not a member, then we encourage you tosign up today!
