I've been known to wander off...

Put me in a garden, or a nursery, and I will inevitably end up in some corner that I shouldn't be in. Maybe it's not technically an off-limits area, but it just feels that way so the entire time I'm snapping photos I'm waiting to hear someone say "You! Hey you! What are you doing?"...

And so after I'd explored the nursery proper at San Marcos Growers I was still itching for more—maybe because there was an entire section of the nursery across the street which was locked up and we couldn't get in?—I don't know, but I needed to venture on, and I did...

I have no idea what this area is, part of the nursery? Where staff lives? Someone I recognized from the Bromeliad Summit walked through and shot me a couple questioning looks, but didn't voice any concern. She eventually disappeared through a gate I wasn't brave enough to open. She seemed to belong, where as I obviously did not.

That didn't stop me from exploring though...

The tillandsia on those shelves!

Whose collection is this?

OMG! I could have grabbed that big boy and ran...

So much tillandsia usneoides...


So many questions, left unanswered...

Out-of-bounds-wander over though. I needed to go join the group as the silent auction was about to end and I had a $5 bromeliad to win!
