A few weeks ago, I bought a CG brug from a local nursery that had buds on it. Poor thing sulked in all of the rain we've been having. Tuesday was really nice and windy. It was so windy, half of the plant broke off :( Needless to say the remaining half was immediately staked. After I got home from work, I noticed the bloom had started to open. I've never seen a brug bloom outside of in photos so I couldn't wait. 15 minutes ago, I turned on the outside light and the beautiful, very fragrant bloom is fully open. I sat on the ground with the bloom over my nose and enjoyed the wondeful fragrance. Now I understand why you all are hooked on these! I had to snap a pic too. How long do CG blooms usually last for?
