One of the highlights of the upcoming Cactus, Succulent, and Bromeliad Festival is a competition where participants can put their babies under the spotlight for a chance to be hailed as the Best Bromeliad along with other titles that are up for grabs.
Here are the guidelines on how to enter the competition:
