It is very difficult to ID a Brug using a single photo or even one bloom. Identifying a Brug incorrectly adds to the confusion and get worse when cuttings are shared using the incorrect name. Weather and growing conditions greatly influence what the blooms and color look like. Leaves can too. Although this is not a variegated Brug, this is what I mean about the differences in blooms and color in one cultivar. http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/244829/ Much of the time my Mountain Magic looks like the photos in the link above. This winter some of the blooms looked like the photo I have included. Notice the long neck on the bloom. A very short calx makes this look like an entirely different Brug. If I were to try to ID this Brug going by this photo , that long neck on the bloom would send me off in an entirely different direction in that attempt. |
