Bromeliad Society of Australia.
2006 Annual Autumn Show

The 2006 Spring Show, competition, and sales were held at the Burwood RSL club on Saturday 14/10/06 10AM to 5PM and Sunday 15/10/06 10AM to 3:30PM.
The highlight MUST have been Andy's world record Tillandsia ring.
It mostly went smoothly, until the goods lift broke down Sunday night with a young couple (and many "pricklies") stuck in it!
Thankyou to all the tired volunteers who made it all happen.
