| Hi Bromaloonie, It's so nice to see your pictures again! I think you have the most beautiful pictures on here so I am always excited to see them. I have been collecting a few more myself and recently ordered a few from Michaels. And they are so pretty of course I find myself wanting more. I did get a few that I have seen in your pictures such as Lila and Purplestar. I also got Treasure chest, Las Vegas, Hula Lady and Hawaiian Rainforest. I was wondering if you could identify a few from your pictures today? 1. 1st picture,the light colored one in the center of bottom row. I am always writing down the names of the ones I love so I can see if I can find them. Thanks again for posting your LOVELY pictures! |

| Hey there Matt, thanks for your compliments. I live up in the Northern end of the Atherton Tablelands, in a little town called Julatten just west of Port Douglas , North of Cairns ,up in the hills. |

| Germaine, I always love seeing your plants, you definitely have the knack for growing lovely broms. Is the large Neo in your first photo above GeeWhiz? Cheers, Rick |

| They certainly get to a bigger size up there. I also think the colour is more intense. |

| Bromaloonie, I absolutely love the colors and the wonderful conformation of growth on your broms! Really AWESOME!!! Paul |

| Just the tonic we needed its been a very wet and cold winter so far here in NZ so your pics are a joy !! Your broms just get better and better B loonie!! supper jellous of your growing conditions and the results. love all your stacked multilayered leafed Neo's and see some Vriesea's appearing in the mix also. I dont see a Vr Gigantea var seildeliana amoung the pics, do you have one?? Im sure this plant would do very well for you. |
|
| Bromaloonie, always nice to look at your pictures of your plants! And about: "I hope it did not come accross as big noting myself". If you grow them that nice, be proud about it and flaunt it!!! Your Neo Bailey's Choice is the nicest one I ever saw - in real life or on a picture! |

| Good golly Avane...lol...which one are you regarding as Bailey's choice? I dont have one called that, can you please tell me which pic and which brom? That would very interesting to know.I have many unnamed broms sadly enough , so it would be wonderful to get to know some of them a bit more personaly rather then just dribbling on them all the time...LOL Gosh Jaga,Nice of you to say so, that they are getting better....lol...Ive noticed this also with this shadehouse and living here (been here almost 2 years) and Ive seen alot of changes and I too see them getting better and better, so obviously all about location location. Yes Rick, I do think it is a Gee Whiz. I just went out to look at his tag as there was a possibility it was called WaHa. But the tag is gone? Ive just planted him out in a garden 2 weeks ago and i seem to have lost the tag....booger Thanks everyone for your comments.I will try to keep some different views comming sometimes, but I just cant get my eyes past the coloured up well formed Neos. Thats when I run for my camera again. |

| Picture #6, sitting centre stage between DeRolf and kautskyi! Here's what mine looked some time ago. But in stead of developing in a bigger, better looking plant, it did not turn out very nice. Had some deformed leaves. But it did get some very nice colour when it flowered! The first pup also came out all twisted, but there are 2 small pups on it now that looks like they are going to be well! |

| Ahhhhhh, that one is actually tagged Skotack Hybrid. I have 3 of them and all from different places and all with the same name of Skotack hybrid. I actually got a new shot of mine this morning. I love it. Yours has a very nice pink tinge. I like that one too. |

| Hi Germaine - just catching up. So many beautifully grown, beautiful plants. Great arrangements. Great pics. Just such a pleasure to look through - as always! Great to see your orlandiana experiment going strong. I'll take a pic of my half of it and post it on the weekend. I just wish I had your winter! In that first pic in the second lot - the one with the plants in the new bed next to the cane chairs - is that Ae. JC Superstar towards the left hand end? The one that is still a nice hot pink underneath? My JC gets full morning sun right through - and it still goes a slightly pink oatmealy colour after the first few cold nights in a row in May. Or maybe it's the day temps not getting hot enough down here in mid-winter? But if I put it in a more sheltered spot that heats up in the sun, it doesn't seem to get strong enough light. Hmmmm. Maybe I just have to make do with intense colour for 8 months of the year. Ah well, just love to see some more pics anytime you get the chance. Cheers, Paul |
