Was out in the yard yesterday...lots of color! Seems to be bromeliad season...sorry, no names on any of them.

Begonia's first:

This is a hanging plant I started from one little tiny piece (Ken, I sent you some of this....it DOES bloom tiny white flowers!)

This is a native....that's a 4 inch pot in some of the pics for sizing. It's just starting to send up a bloom spike from the center (the last one I had bloom put up a 4 foot spike before it opened to a very non-spectacular bloom) Ken, @drdawg this is same that I sent the little ones to you...I think we decided it was the Tillandsia utriculata, aka the "giant airplant"
