Species of Nidularium are still blooming in numbers although more species seem to be in bud than in flower at the moment. Nidularium The inflorescence is a simple spike with a innocentii and Nidularium longiflorum still pleasing, but not outstanding, pink color have open flowers. Although many species of the Tillandsia fasciculata complex are now past flowering, Species of Orthophytum continue in full others, often pups from plants that bloomed bloom. Most members of the Orthophytum earlier in the year are in bud or flower.

  • Growing Bromeliads Epiphytically in the Subtropical Home Garden Kerry Booth Tate (As Published in the BSI Journal, May-June 2003, Revised August 2017)
    Growing Bromeliads Epiphytically in the Subtropical Home Garden Kerry Booth Tate (as published in the BSI Journal, May-June 2003, Revised August 2017) Most bromeliad growers I know, and know of, cultivate their plants in pots under shade cloth, or some form of protective structure. This is necessary when climatic conditions do not replicate the bromeliads’ natural habitat. However, for those lucky gardeners who live in a subtropical climate, as I do, growing bromeliads in trees of the home garden can be successful and very effective. I have many established trees in my garden, thanks to the previous owners. Moving here from a cool-temperate region, I was greatly impressed and inspired by a huge flowering clump of the common Billbergia pyramidalis, climbing the trunk of an old Silky Oak (Grevillea robusta). Since then, my trees have become living sculptures – embellished with their ornaments, it’s like Christmas all year! With each new bromeliad purchase, I research its origin and growth habit in the literature available (pre internet access and the realm of international forums and facebook!), and decide where and under which conditions it might thrive. When tying a bromeliad onto the branch or trunk of a tree, I do not use sphagnum moss around the root area of the plant. Sometimes, a purchased pot-grown bromeliad already has an established root ball including pine chunks. This can be easier to secure to a branch, especially if the plant is not stoloniferous. Well-grown pups, with an obvious stolon, can be tied directly onto the upper side of a branch very easily.

A total of 32 members attended the meeting. Apologies were given for seven members. Ron mentioned that Rosemary Dalton had had a second operation and was on the mend. Laurie Mountford had also recovered. General Business Ross reminded the meeting that DVD’s containing Newsletters from various Groups and Societies from around Australia were available from the library. The disks are updated monthly. Also, with the author’s permission, member’s articles and photos used in our Newsletters and/or for presentations, would be retained by the library. Both Trish’s and Debbie’s originals have been filed. A copy of Derek Butcher’s (Uncle Derek) latest Tillandsia disk is now in the library. The issue of labelling sales and raffle broms was mentioned again (see p3, FNCBSG(NSW) Newsletter, March 2012). A much repeated discussion on label- ling followed. Ross pointed out that the whole idea of labelling is to make ones life easier, especially when you want to replace lost plants or plants you wish to obtain. You are not expected to remember all the names just retain the tags. In regard to library books, please ensure that the borrowing cards are filled out correctly when borrowing, and that your name is crossed out when the book is returned.
