From the initiative of the German and the Dutch/Belgian Bromeliad societies, the first European Bromeliad Congress will take place in September 2007 at the Utrecht University Botanic Gardens. We estimate that about 100 persons will attend and we hope some people from outside the two societies will participate in the congress. Feel free to contact me if you need more information. The language will be English with translation to German and Dutch.

Hope to meet you there!!!
