Featuring: Spend the weekend exploring bromeliads and tropical plants where garden inspiration is everywhere at the Bromeliad & Tropicals Spring Show & Sales.
Bromeliads have attractive leaves and clump which means they make great ground cover, equally they can be grown individually in pots. They are epiphytic so are often found in trees and on stumps. Depending on the variety, bromeliads can take full sun, part sun or total shade and are high survivors. Their flowers are stunning and long lasting.
Presented by the Bromeliad Society of Queensland, our experienced growers will be sharing their luscious gardens with you. Purchase all types of plants from bromeliads & tillandsias to tropicals & indoor plants, starting at only $5.
Bromeliad Information sessions will be held on Saturday at 11am and 1pm, plus Sunday at 11am – no charge – to provide you with information on growing and propagating bromeliads.
The Society is proud to donate all proceeds from the Monster Raffle, recipient to be confirmed.
