hi everyone! yes, you guys are right...the versicolor white label was meant for the little brug trying to grow beside the huge one there...i don't know which one it could be, then, and hope someone can positively identify it?

also we've decided that someone just made up that name they had on the big white brug at the nursery here, because it's just too similar to Kyle's Giant White...so I'm going with that, over Windsor White Datura (that's what it was marked, i know, i know...). it's gotta be kgw...it's sooooo big!!!

my brugs are still blooming, but i was afraid of a freeze and went to take cuttings. ponditis had never smelled a brug before, so i sent her a big huge box filled with brugs in bloom...my versicolor peach and orange, along with candida double white were digging the weather, guess they like the colder climate, so she got a good whif, i hope!

it made me sick to cut down all those brugs covered with flower buds, though, and some are still in vases, and i'm still praying for the flowers to open up, but most all have just fallen off and died...argh!

snowbank and golden lady were next to each other and were attacked by some kind of brown bugs that looked like little bits of dirt stuck to the leaves...they're still alive, but there's not much left of them.

monika, tiara did begin getting a very slight peach lining as the weather grew cooler. they went from cream-white, to slightly more yellow, then to a tinge of peach here and there....wild! she bloomed well for me, but not nearly as well as candida double white! i those two were my best and most consistent bloomers of all, as the rest bloomed in cycles.

brugie, i just didn't get to the pinks yet...here's rosamond!
