Most bromeliads here in the USA have no natural pollinators and have to be hand pollinated to set seed. In their natural habitat most bromeliads are thought to be pollinated by specific species of hummingbirds and night flying bats. The most common to "naturally" set seed here in the US that can be easily collected are Dyckias, Puyas, Hechtias and other "succulent" type bromeliads.

I waqs just out on this sites' web page listing all the different Rudbeckias and realize I need more-more. I have seed of R. laciniata var ??? growing wild on my property and R. fulgida var Deamii and 'Goldsturm' that I started from seed for trade. (I wish I had never started all the 'Goldsturm after seeing the Deamii). If anyone has different speicie to trade let me know. I could use more R. maxima seed for one. See link for For complete list of all the Rudbeckias Here is a link that might be useful: Gardenweb list of Rudbeckia
