Bromeliad Taxonomists and Growers List
Brom-L pages (features)
About Brom-L:
Brom-L was created by Cassio van den Berg to share and discuss information
and experiences of bromeliad taxonomists and growers. It is like a virtual
Bromeliad Society. The most important thing is to exchange Bromeliad
information. As a guide, the discussions should focus on:
- Bromeliad Taxonomy and Identification
- Discussion of types grown
- Cultivation techniques of certain types
- Bromeliad events
- Scientific, biological issues relating to bromeliads
- Seeding and propagating techniques
- Hybrids and hybridizing
- Anything that would be of interest to bromeliad growers
The list may not be used for:
- commercial activities (advertising)
- personal conversation that is of no interest to other members
- conversations that have nothing to do with Bromeliads or growing
plants
- replying to other messages without removing irrelevant text (digest
messages will become difficult to read)
- When replying to messages, please removing irrelevant text from the
original message(s) repeated under your reply - if you do not, digest messages
will become very difficult to read and you will inconvenience readers of your message with unnecessary repeated text
- Some mail services do allow you to reject messages from certain
email addresses. If these addresses are from members of this list
that are regular contributors, do not use this feature, because we
are getting an error message for each rejection. Just use the DEL
key instead.
- Be sure that the subject line is clear in what the message is
about.
