Planting Broms in wet areas

I am making bromeliad gardens. I live in a rain forest (about 100 inches of rain a year) and have clay soil. I don't have many trees yet for epiphytic growth. I (without trees) have lots of full sun. I realize these are not optimum growing conditions for broms!

Can people who live in moist areas tell me how they grow their broms?

Many people here plant them in the ground in their pots. They seem to do ok. I haven't done that yet but may be going toward that route. If I plant right in the ground, they don't "thrive". I have started to make a mound of soil and rocks and plant them in that pile and they seem to like it better.

I would love to hear suggestions.
