Twice a year, the Wholesale Bromeliads of Australia hosts a Wavell Heights Bromeliads Extravaganza where plant lovers can purchase directly from growers. If you’ve been anticipating the next event, you’d be pleased to know that it is coming up on Saturday and Sunday, the 28th and 29th of Sept 2019.
On the said dates, Wavell Heights Community Hall will be turned into an indoor garden with heaps of Bromeliads for sale. These plants, which belong to a family with over 3,000 species, can propagate outdoors as a stump or tree in areas with a warm climate. However, it’s also cool to put broms in pots indoors, where they can grow into a decorative plant with patterned foliage or flaming red blooms.
You’ll know more about growing and tending to Bromeliads when you visit the extravaganza. Expect to be in awe of the selection from growers, which includes mini Neoregelias, Alcantareas, Aechmea gracilis and Tillandsias, among others.
Happening from morning to early afternoon, you may also enjoy a bountiful breakfast, tea or lunch at the Wavell Heights Bromeliads Extravaganza as bacon, egg rolls, burgers and drinks will be available. In addition, 20 plants will also be raffled off to lucky guests.
Take note of these trading hours if you’re planning to drop by.
