Oh I am on the Gold Coast Aust
Hello, I am a disability support worker and a client of mine has the most amazingly beautiful garden in his backyard.
If you stepped out there you would feel like you stepped into a nursery.
But anyway he has made the decision to get rid of ALL his plants so I thought I would see her w I go selling for him.
My issue is I am so not a green thumb at all. So I don't even have any idea on the names of these plants?
So Im hoping you could help me?
So lets start with these ones. H

Welcome! to the forums!
Most of what I see are bromeliads of the genus Neoregelia. I think most of them are hybrids. Check around the edges of the pots for tags that might give you more specific names for them.

You are absolutely right that it looks like a nursery. A fun one to get lost in while looking for a special variety.

Wow.
Your client may have a disability.
But the disability certainly isn't in the thumb!
