“A couple of weeks before Katrina, I had purchased a selection of several dozen bromeliads from the estate of the recently deceased past president of the American Bromeliad Association and moved them from the back yard of her house on Royal Street in the French Quarter of New Orleans to Auburn, Alabama. At the time my biggest fear was that the plants would not survive in Auburn, when in fact it was the core collection of plants in New Orleans that would be destroyed a few short weeks later.” (08/29/08)
