Hi Chanin!

When I've seen a photo at once I have thought it seeds Aechmea
recurvata so quickly grown , but later I've read
your message and understood that babies other plants

Hello Chanin!
I joined the forum last week, and I am very impressed by your plants.

My main interest has always been terestial broms, and though I have limited space, gow mainly Hectias, Dyckias and Puyas. ( biggest in 36" pots. )

Usually I cut all the seed heads off and compost, as I have no use for them. I throw hundreds of plants away each year.

I would love to be able to do swops instead. ( it has always seemed a terible waste, but I knew no one that liked terestials. ) I can let you ( or anyone else interested) know by email what the probable parents are, and if you are interested swop.

Hi Summerset Broms

So do I...a real terestrial xeric brom fan
My mom always ask me that, instead of beautiful Neo or Guzmania, why I grow these spiny mess !!!

What I can say..."I am hooked... I love that hurter..."

Hi Vitaly,

Just want to show you the seedlings of Aechmea recurvata, that you sent seeds to me month ago.
They are doing well here.

Chanin as you have already grown seedlings of Aechmea recurvata?
