Getting out of hand

Yikes, I'm starting to go down that slippery slope of excessive obsessionality when it comes to collecting plants. I feel it in my bones. And it's not good! 

Got a bunch of beauties recently from the local nursery. 
Top left to right:
T.juncifolia , T.aeranthos , T.flabellata
Middle:
T.caput-medusae , T.bergeri , T.xerographica , T.somnians 
Bottom:
T.usneoides (fine) , and bunch of small T.concolor, T.capitata "peach", T.brachycaulos and T.velutina. 

In addition, the SGF is coming soon at the end of the month. I'm doing it as a family outing, but what I'm also really looking out for are cheap deals on Tillandsia especially. I'm ashamed to say that I've also caved in, and made a pre-order for one of the Ecuadorean vendors to bring in plants for me! Some of them are intermediate/cool-growing things so we'll see how things go. 
*update* well seems like the Ecuadorean batch won't make it in time for SGF. Oh well .. More $ for other plants then!
