Happy Blooming Season to everyone! I think about you all (and snoop around DG to make sure you're all "playing in the dirt").. I hope you will forgive me for not checking in, it was a long winter and busy summer. I'm not on the puter much these days, I have been lurking on the thread this morning, saw Deb mention my ol leathery self and felt I wanted to post a howdy-do and a thank you...
I love all your beautiful bloom pics! A bloom is beautiful no matter what color or how many there are... This was my 10th year growing them. I've learned a lot on DG (not just about brugs), and a lot from experiencing them.. I wonder, "Will I ever have enough???" I'll be trimming soon and I do have a lil rooted Maya for one of you ladies'.... Llasalover?? Yes, it's Tammie, cause I wrote it on the tag.. :)
I think I've gone to brug heaven. The best year for blooms I've ever had...there has been at least 1 bloom everyday since the beginning of June.. Deb came when I had the most flushing and now with the rain this week, it's not so pretty out there, but there are more buds behind the withering blooms.... the grasshoppers have started snacking a little but I have sprayed no insecticides (yet) or other bug sprays.. am I dead? I MUST be in heaven. Here are my producers.. I have to start with my old girl... I keep thinking each year will be her last, but she won't quit. I'm afraid if I mess with her pot she will freak. There WILL be a celebration of her glory IF/when? I ever lose her. Course, I keep backs-ups. Peach Versi
