It was my pleasure! I really enjoyed the show and look forward to the next one.

Lovely collection. Wish we could do a trade. I too am a Brom lover and succulents too.
Guess I'll just have to compete and post a pic or 2. I have only 1 of these; none of this one to trade for yet.
Guess I should post one that I do have available for a special trade.
Late to this show but enjoyed the photos Mellielong ~ thank you.
Please tell me how you manage to take photos and ID the plants for posting at a later time? Kristi
I take a picture of the plant and then I take a picture of the tag with the plant's name on it. So I know the photo after the plant is its name.
Melanie
Aha! Thanks... I wondered how hard it would be to keep the photo and name straight.
Envious that you have access to all those wonderful shows! Kristi
