It's been a great spring so far with plenty of rain but still enough warm sunny days to really get those weeds growing. Oops I meant 'plants'. It’s been great to see plenty of bromeliads flowering as it has been a good year for aechmeas and billbergias, and some colouring up of neoregelias as the daylight hours are increasing. I'm sure the Tillandsia collectors are also seeing lots of colour if Chris Larson’s posts on Facebook are any indication. I did notice that the overnight temperature dropped below five degrees in some suburbs recently, so remain vigilant to avoid cold damage to any plants that you may have put in a more exposed position to make the most of the sunshine. All this time at home has provided a golden opportunity to keep on top of garden maintenance and hopefully a chance to take on some new projects. Not being able to duck out to grab garden supplies when needed has been a downside, but that just takes a bit more forward planning. Unfortunately the BSV is still unable to hold meetings and of course our Bromeliad Show that is usually held next month will not go ahead this year. Plans are to have the show in March 2021 but as you can appreciate, such plans are fluid with our uncertain road back to life as we knew it. You can still catch up with what some BSV members are up to by visiting the Victorian bromeliad site on Facebook or join the Zoom discussion group that's held on the third Wednesday evening of each month. Please take care both physically and mentally and hopefully we'll be unrestricted sooner rather than later. Rochelle Gaugg 4 GENERAL MEETINGS These are held at Phoenix Park Community Centre, Rob Roy Rd, Malvern East. Melway Ref. Map 69, D2. Meetings commence at 7:30 pm sharp.

Especially during the rainy season, when the weather is unpredictable and sudden downpours are not uncommon, this new café is a great place to enjoy greenery over a cup of coffee while keeping dry. It's like walking into a floral fantasy of your Instagram dreams. The big hall is all decked out with blooming flower walls and hanging baskets planted with begonias, fuchsias, petunias, geraniums and bellflowers. The open, light-filled space is a breath of fresh air and a sight for sore eyes. The lush, comfortable atmosphere has plenty of greenery to calm your mind – there’s even a communal table with a water feature. Make a beeline for one of the counter seats facing the café’s 8m-long aquarium and you'll be treated to a mesmerising view of colourful coral fish from Okinawa. As the greenhouse is inside Yomiuriland’s Hana Biyori botanical garden, you’ll have to fork out ¥1,200 (primary school students and children aged three and older ¥600) for the park entry to get to this unique Starbucks outlet. (Ed: ¥1,200 = $16) (from: https://www.timeout.com/tokyo/news) Photo: Yomiuri Land VALE – BRYAN PATEN We were very sad to learn of the passing of Bryan Paten, a long-time member of BSV. Bryan held several committee positions, recently as Secretary, but previously as President. He was a fount of knowledge, keen to share this with fellow members, and often gave demonstrations on making his famous bromeliad trees – large branches adorned with a variety of different bromeliads arranged with skill to display the colour, patterns and shapes of one of his favourite plants. Bryan will be sorely missed for his friendship, helpfulness, smile and his sense of humour. 7 FROM MY SPRING GARDEN GARRY BRADY Rhododendron Scilla peruvianus Lachenalias Aechmea apocalyptica mini daffs NANCE ESMORE’S ORCHIDS KEELY OUGH’S ALBUCA SPIRALIS 8 BROMELIAD FOLIAGE LLOYD GODMAN The primary function of pigments in plants is photosynthesis, which uses the green pigment chlorophyll along with several red and yellow pigments that help to capture as much light energy as possible.

  • An Alphabetical List of Bromeliad Binomials
    AN ALPHABETICAL LIST OF BROMELIAD BINOMIALS Compiled by HARRY E. LUTHER The Marie Selby Botanical Gardens Sarasota, Florida, USA ELEVENTH EDITION Published by the Bromeliad Society International June 2008 ii INTRODUCTION TO EDITION XI This list is presented as a spelling guide for validly published taxa accepted at the Bromeliad Identification Center. The list contains the following information: 1) Genus number (the left-hand number) based on the systematic sequence published in the Smith & Downs monograph: Bromeliaceae (Flora Neotropica, number 14, parts 1-3; 1974, 1977, 1979). Whole numbers are as published in the monograph. 2) Species number (the second number) according to its systematic position in the monograph. Note: Taxa not included in the monograph or that have been reclassified have been assigned numbers to reflect their systematic position within the Smith & Downs framework (e.g., taxon 14.1 is related to taxon 14). The utility of this method is that one may assume for example that Tillandsia comarapaensis (150.2) is related to T. didisticha (150) and therefore may have certain horticultural qualities in common with that species. 3) Genus and species names follow the respective numbers. 4) Subspecific taxa (subspecies, varieties, forms) names are indented below the species names. Note: Variety "a" (the type variety) is not listed unless it contains a form (see Aechmea caudata ). Similarly, the type form is not listed. 5) Author name follows the specific and subspecific names. These names are included for the convenience of specialist users of the list. This list does not contain publication data or synonymy, as it is not our intent for it to be a technical nomenclatural guide.

  • A Brief Characterization of the Vascular Flora in the Azores' Historical Gardens
    GREEN GARDENS AZORES PROJECT: A BRIEF CHARACTERIZATION OF THE VASCULAR FLORA IN THE AZORES’ HISTORICAL GARDENS Maria João Pereira*, Raimundo Quintal**, Carina Costa*** & Isabel Albergaria**** Abstract The Green Gardens Azores Project is part of the action plan for tourism development in Portugal (2014-2020) aiming to integrate the Azorean Gardens in the circuit of international ‘Garden Tourism’. With that purpose we built a checklist of the vascular plants cultivated in 8 Azorean Historical Gardens. The analysis of this checklist reveals a richness of 1884 specific and infra-specific taxa, hybrids and cultivars. This richness is represented by 168 families, 514 genera, 991 species, 288 hybrids and 958 cultivars. Camellia hybrids correspond to 60% of all the hybrids and Camellia cultivars represent 71% of all the cultivars. Zamiaceae is the family best represented with 73 species while the best represented genera are Encephalartos with 48 species and Camellia with 45 species. The presence of 5 species extinct in the wild and 96 threatened species in the Azorean Gardens stresses the role of the Gardens in the Conservation of World Flora. Keywords: Azores, garden flora, garden tourism.

For a three-year period we decided to reduce the commission at our Shows to 10% instead of 20%. To encourage members to sell at meetings we decided this would be free of commission for the same period. In our last Gazette you may have noticed my plea for a photographer at our meetings to take a photograph of a plant that had some special interest.
