Default Got these last weekend

Was at CH last weekend with Andy's poison still lingering in the system so took a walk and got these. Perhaps someone could put a name to these plants?
Thank you in advance.



Bought this at the Brinchang pasar malam.



Got this at Cactus Valley.



Also bought this from Cactus Valley.



Is this a Brom? The guy at one of the nurseries I visited said it was and said I could have it for free if I wanted it.

Now awaiting for another of Andy's special offers!

Wow! I didn't know it leave such a deep impact on you. Nice haul you've got there.
The first pic is Guzmania. I don't know the name as there are too many hybrids around with maroon purplish color. What I can tell is that plant have lingulata parentage.

Hard to tell what Till is in the 2nd pic. Silvery leaf and a bit fleshy?

3rd pic is stricta hard leaf form. YG got plenty.

Not really sure what's the last pic. Possibly a large form of Neo. meyendorffii or carolinae. Looks like there's no new growth. I think there's some damage to the growth point. Don't worry. You'll get pups instead.

Thanks Andy. And now with the write-up on you in the New Straits Times Six; there is even more poison in the air.

Love what you did with your garden. It is truly like stepping into another world altogether, the perfect escape from the concrete jungle we live in!
