| These are the 11 new bromeliads we bought last weekend from a clearance sale that a little brom mursery was having. We have already got a couple but bought them as they were cheap and had heaps of pups on them so help fill up the garden faster. Aechmea - pineliana, weilbachii pendula, organensis, caudata variegata. Billbergia - pyramidalis 'Kyoto', pyramidalis 'Gloria', 'Windii' Neoregelia - burle-marxii, and 1 unnamed Vriesea 'Kitteliana' Quesnelia - unnamed The dearest was $6 (big one in the middle) and the cheapest was .50c (in the red pot) | |

| Haven't really decided what to do with them yet. I've been thinking about keeping at least one of each of our broms (including ones already in the garden) in pots and then plant any pups in the garden as it is hard to remember what is what when they are all over the garden and if the conditions aren't right they don't colour up properly so makes trying to ID some difficult. The conditions can be controlled easier in pots. | |

| Ebay isn't cheap though if you know what you are looking for you can sometimes be lucky... | |
