Really lovely photos Matt! I especially like the Alcantarea imperialis Skotak, the leaves are sooo wide!
The last pic looks like one I was trying to get some info on just recently. I thought it might be a Cruenta hybrid, but some say its more Johannis. I'm none the wiser really, but get alot of enjoyment from it anyway.
Your gardens look great! I bet you love them.

Hi and welcome Matt! The collection is coming along nicely.

Matt,

Your garden is looking good, I was glad to have you over - it motivated me to clean up a little after you left, looking at your garden I guess I have a little more cleaning up to do.

Is the last shot Neo. Cockabell?

The 3rd last looks a little like Gold Fever.

Cheers,

Rick

B_A i think your right here. This was one of the Broms my old boy gave me and i know he has had it in his garden for many years. This same brom is green in shade and a nice pinkish orange in full sun and during blush. The leaves are hard with razor teeth and the centre flower us green.
Next time I visit my father i'll take some snaps and post them up on your thread to see if that helps.

neomea thx for the welcome.

Rick my yard is under 700² metres so its kinda expected to be tidyish. If I had a yard anywhere near the size of yours i'd constantly be expending it with new gardens and shade houses. The last one isn't cockabelle but might be the same brom B_A is trying to ID in another recent thread.
Here's a Cockabelle simular to the one I gave you.

Hi Matt, yes i like the way your garden is shaping up as well, your Vr,gigantea (tesselata)is very nice and one of my favoriete plants, i would suggest that you give your Alc.vinicolour as much light as possible to colour it up ,your Alc.Imperialis 'skotak' is lovely,good show,the red Neo,with the spots ? i dont think is 'gold fever'leaves are to narrow and spots not intense enough ,it looks more like a plant thats been around for years as 'black forest'and if thats grown a bit soft looks like that.all the same .a good show, Jacob

Hi Matt, welcome! Thanks for the pics. You have some nice plants there - and so much room for so many more! Cheers, Paul

Hey Matt, love those alcatareas. And the other big ones too. But there's definitely room to get more bromeliads in there!

Thankyou all for your comments. Yes there is always room for more and with this brom bug i'm forever buying new plants..... even today i bought a couple lol.

Jacob thankyou for naming my vriesea. I've always wondered whether or not I should give the vincolour more sun so i've taken your advice and moved it into a place it will get lots more sun, thankyou.

Matt, I'm glad you think they may be the same. As soon as I saw your pic I thought I recognised it! Yes, pinkish in full light. Does/did your dad know the name?

Hi Matt,

There's only one thing better than looking through my bromeliad garden, and that's looking through someone elses!

Yours looks great, keep up the good work and thanks for sharing it with us.

All the best, Nev.

Lovely garden Matt and definitely plenty of room for more broms.
