The next meeting of the Bromeliad Society of Australia will be on Saturday, 10 July at the Federation Pavilion, Castle Hill Showground, Showground Road, Castle Hill off Doran Drive. Bromeliad sales at 10am and the meeting commencing at 12noon.

The BSA is please to announce that local bromeliad guru Allan Beard of Glenorie will be the guest speaker.

Allan's presentati­on will focus on how to establish a new bromeliad garden.

Allan who is a life member of the BSA has been collecting hundreds of bromeliads for more than 30 years.

Anyone who has been fortunate to visit Allan's property has witnessed the amazing magical bromeliad garden he has created with interest in every section of his garden, by using bromeliads of contrastin­g colours, sizes, textures and unusual markings, together with the occasional garden ornament, hanging baskets, tree stumps and branches adorned with air plants.

Members and guests are most welcome to attend this presentati­on that promises to be entertaini­ng and informativ­e, especially for anyone who is considerin­g installing a low maintenanc­e and drought tolerant Bromeliad garden.
