How's it hanging? Not bad old fruit.

Some new addition to the collection.

Couple of hanging species. No idea what they are called as lost the bit of paper from Oscar.

I plan to do quality photographs of my whole collection and catalogue them properly. (Oscar even has all the prices but I am not sure I want to know that)

A rather fecund Opuntia which I will be looking forward to nibbling on when the ripen.

And finally this and I know it is not bromeliadguide.com but this is so stunning thought some of you might appreciate it.

Very nice, I like the Opuntia sp. the best.

Great looking plants. Can't help on IDs though. I'm guessing that that's a multiple flowers on the Bromeliad. Looks great! TFS.

The bromeliad is an Aechmea fasciculata. I do love them too and they are a favorite houseplant at least in Germany.

I looked at this post several times, wondering... "Who's the Old Fruit?"

Your rooftop just keeps getting better and better.

The first "hanger" is Cleistocactus winteri and the second is Disocactus flagelliformis - I'm pretty sure about that.

You could live for a year off that Opuntia
