David...
The Feros in the trays with big labels were from a very recent, excellent talk Derek Bowdery gave to the Crawley branch.

Re: Bromley Branch Visit to Eau Brink Nursery
A word of advice Chris. Establish clearly with Derek what is for sale and what is not. There is a clear "sales area" but it turned out that there were some newly acquired plants for sale that hadn't made it into the official sales area that we nearly missed. Equally there are a lot of plants that look as though they might be for sale that aren't. Establishing this at the outset will avoid upset when it's time to pay.

Re: Bromley Branch Visit to Eau Brink Nursery
Apologies for the fuzzy picture, Julie, but this Fenestraria has the most leaves you've ever seen

I'll see if I can get some shots of my Fenestrarias tomorrow. I like them a lot.

Hmmm Feros to make your eyes water. Thanks for this great set of pics. I'm slowly establishing my own modest collection of feros and these pics have made me more determined to continue doing so. Great!!

Re: Bromley Branch Visit to Eau Brink Nursery
Lovely Feros indeed! (No Gymnos????)
Thanks for sharing! Might go one day...
I went to Southfields last Saturday and had a thoroughly good time but no pics I'm afraid! (Too busy oggling and choosing my purchases!!

Tending more towards cacti
, particularly Gymnocalyciums, Rebutias, Sulcorebutias, Echinopses, Thelos, Feros and Mamms (and anything else I like the look of!) all in an 8 x 6 polycarb greenhouse and a few windowsills!

Re: Bromley Branch Visit to Eau Brink Nursery
Plenty of Gymno's there Maria, just not quite so spectacular. A lot of nice Gymnos. in the sales area too. I bought several when we visited last year.

Re: Bromley Branch Visit to Eau Brink Nursery
[size=medium]Derek gave the N & MK branch his Agave talk at our last meeting & it was really good. A mix of habitat shots & culture information.
He also had sale plants so of course I came back with another 6 agaves for the collection.
Visiting 'Eau brink' is getting to the top of my list along with Toobee's[/size]
