Unfortunately this patch of bromeliads (Neoregelia "Fever") is not as photogenic as I thought they would be. They look much better in the flesh. See http://365project.org/terryliv/directors-cut/2014-04-06 for a close up of an individual Fever. Now take it away Peggy . . . . . (If you know what I'm talking about you're old!!!)
Thanks for the "A is for Acorn". My brain would not shut-up about what the "B" could be all night long.
