Comments (15)Hi Dooley, They're two nice looking little plants toy have there. Exactly what size are they and are they also unstable like the mini meyendorffii. kathi_mdgd, Sorry, I stuffed up once again. I was rearranging my albums and must have broken the link which caused the pic's to be removed. I try and load them again. Does anyone know if it's possible to remove all the blank boxes where the pic's once were?

Comments (6)haha. That's pretty much where 70% all my plants come from. Just about every Saturday I start the morning early with a 6am trip to the Rocklea markets for my morning Brom. Yes I got the Billbergia and the Aechmea #2 from him. Most of those plants are normally labeled but those two were not. I don't think it is a B. Strawberry- The unknown billbergia is too compact. See this link here to another thread, there is a Billbergia there thought to be 'louis wilson'- it looks a lot like the one from the Rocklea Markets, it is the most similar labeled plant I have seen. Here is a link that might be useful: Billberiga 'Louis Wilson'...See MoreWANTED: my plant list for the swaps --
