    Some great plants there Neonut, & nice photos. AF does have many very nice hybrids. I see that not all of your AF hybrids are registered / named on FCBS...are these from the Golinski collection..?

    Can you tell me if the hybrid, Neo Allan Freeman is readily available...? I have only seen it on FCBS, & never in any collections. AF seems to have done a number of crosses with Grace Darling, but this one that carries his name is one that I really like...I must have a thing for striated plants.

    Here is a link that might be useful: {{gwi:460901}}

    I like N. 'Madam President' many of the new ones look to much alike

    Yes Gem, some look good enough to eat but it would be a rather expensive meal.

    Devo, I purchased most of my AF hybrids from Keith Golinski's Bromagic as you suggested. Others from Exotic life Airplants via ebay. They seem to have a pretty good range of his plants.
    All the ones I have, have been named on his site but some are not yet on the FCBS register.
    Sadly most of the more desirable ones such as 'Allan Freeman' and "Madam President' mentioned by hdd seem to be in very short supply. Like you I have only seem photos of them. I have asked about these and others but have been told they are unavailable at present. Looks like we will have to be patient a bit longer.

    Hdd, I agree that 'Madam President' looks good and that many of the new ones look alike. But with over 400 newly registered this does not surprise. There are enough variations to keep a tragic like me happy. Maybe as was suggested on previous threads by hot..someone..(I wonder who?), hybridists should be more selective as to what they register.

    Neonut,
    I too just received a stack of new pups from Keith,
    none were actually named but had the cross's names on them, some are very colourful and very different and i cant wait till they show their true colours.
    I received them with only just new roots and some without roots so yes they are still very young.They have only been potted up now for 5 days, I watch them every day....lol

    Gem, over the last year or so I have also bought quite a few pups of the unnamed crosses from Keith. Some have been subsequently named others not.
    I believe that many are as good as or even better than some of his named ones. I guess it just depends on personal preference.
    Nothing better than watching them grow over the days, weeks and months. If you are as mad as me you will take photos of them monthly so you can have a record of their development. Believe me, a digital camera is a must.

    Oh my goodness, LOL....So i am mad...LOL
    I take pics regularly of all my broms, so yes a camera is a must
    Im classed as obsessed from friends
    but fellow brom lovers i know, well, we just have a passionate addiction.
    A very healthy one mind you, except for the scars...LOL
    I will show pics over the next few months if you like of their colourings
    who knows maybe we might have some of the same broms
    Love Gem
