Hi All,
Somehow the past weeks has got away from me! The horrific fires were beyond words.
You folks move so fast - I can't keep up ;-)
We've got a white ant infestation in our back fence & so I've been trying to get quotes for a new fence & also pest control to ensure the house doesn't get attacked. Luckily it's brick, but seeing them destroy the fence so quickly has been a surprise.

I've been repotting more of my bromeliads & trying to find good homes for some of the extra pups with friends. I've run out of decent pots to put them in even!
Pam, re the problem with broms & treated pine, I've got a piece of old lattice that I'd like to mount vertically & then hang bromeliads in pots from using circular metal hooks. Do you think that would be a problem? It'd be a neat way to display my "stoloniferous" broms & not take up too much space, but I don't want to kill them!
Here's a pic of my Vr. Sundance (I think) that's been flowering since last year.
