Online Discussions

There are number of different ways to participate in online discussions focusing on bromeliads. A few of them are listed below:


BSI Growers Round Robin

GrowRR is a listserver - an email discussion group - that focuses on Bromeliads. Membership in the Bromeliad Society International is not required to participate in the listserver; however, you are strongly encouraged to join the organization that supports this listserver.

The current membership of this listserver covers the full spectrum of Bromeliad enthusiasts: hobbyists and the casual interest growers, commercial growers and those with a scientific interest. Newcomers will find a wealth of information for the asking; experienced growers can discuss advanced topics and share their knowledge with the less experienced. Recent topics have covered potting mixes, pest problems, greenhouse cultivation and nomenclature for beginners.
