I suppose someone has to be the voice of reason here - just who is it going to be!!!!!! Not me!!!!!!!!!!!

Just to let you know Tulips, it was actually me who said it was a Guzmania and a Bromeliad AND that you can buy them in Ikea. Candylottie was online on her lappy at the time, that's why she won.

I'm not a bad loser or anything

I make my own! Cheap vases, water crystals ( goes further than stones etc) and sisal or other decorative pieces. Used to buy them from one of the local wholesalers but cost a bomb so made my own, means you can mix and match etc.

I've been meaning to ask Carrington about this, they quite often feature nice pots and containers but never mention where to buy the sodding things!
