I've been reading this forum daily for a few weeks now, and it is just simply amazing to have so much knowledge at your fingertips!
I initially purchased a brug (whiskers) from e-bay that's about 17" tall, but has yet to form the "Y." Has new leaves though and seems to have made it through the shipping pretty well.
Yesterday, I went to a little nursery, and low and behold, they had one brug left. Unfortunately, no blooms. However, it has 14 buds on it, and it looks like one is going to bloom soon, for the bud is opening at the end -- hopefully, this does mean that it is going to bloom soon!
The girl at the nursery said the blooms are white with red at the end of the bloom. Any clue what it could be? The nursery was so anxious to get rid of the brug that I got it for a steal! At least I think so. $23.00.
Anyway, here are some pictures of my new brug. Any comments are suggestions are more than welcome.
Thanks!
