Benjamin - You may want to post a classified ad ( Free to all members)
We have a member that does orchid rescue giving away plants for the price of postage
Perhaps you can do the same

I'm in tampa. What kind of Bromeliads? I've done my share of "thinning" recently too. They are the ones where the bloom only lasts a few days. (red)
I thinned out cast iron and potted almost all of it. My neighbors don't want to hear about it any more as I've been trying to give it away. Want some?
