that's a great idea, I can't wait to see the Pic's, I bet they're really pretty, tommorrow, I will be gone, I will be back at 8:30
though, I will take Pic's of whats blooming here, I should have at least 3 pic's, the BC races start early, hopefully I win enough $ to make it worth while, I usually do better than DH does, sometimes he gets mad at me

That's neat...I will have to look up kaitlyn. I know Elizabeth is a very pretty white.
Something funny, when I opened my box today, that the lady sent, one was labeled KBS, and I had no idea what that stood for, til I went to the abbrev. at the top of the brug page. I was so excited to see that it was one that I fell in love with, when I saw Monica's pic on the plant files....LOL
Dee

Ladoga, IN(Zone 6a)

Oh, those two are so pretty! I got a clipping of Angel's Golden Dream, but it is green and was a little limp, before I even got it potted up...so...I don't know if it will makle it or not.I love the Angel's ones!

I am gowing to read al of your post this evening. Today I am going to fix my greenhouse. There are 2 broken windows, so first we are going to buy those. And then DH can fix them. And I'll dig up some banana's (does someone need those? I can put a little one in the box I'll be sending out). And maybe when there is time left I dig up some of mine dahlia's.

Ladoga, IN(Zone 6a)

Morning Jori. I know you will be glad to get your greenhouse windows fixed! How cold does it get in the winter, where you live? I already have some bananas, but the other girls might need some...Thanks, for the offer! Oh, I also got a variagated brug cutting, so you don't need to send a cutting of yours.Postage is so high, now.

This is what I ended up with. he gave me three
after I got the first ones. He was so nice. Nice size cuttings too.
They all were cut above the Y.
Elizabeth, he did have Kaitlin.
Also the one I thought was Valor was actually "DOLA"
They were all great. Going back next summer.

Last winter it became -18 degrees celsius (= -0.399 Fahrenheit). And frost for 3 to for weeks. But usually it gets at minimum -10 (14 degrees Fahrenheit) for a few days or so or maybe a week. But not much longer at once. Then a week or so what warmer and then it can get colder again (or not).

Charleen, nice choises you made! Next year we can swap those!!!

charles gramolda..... isn't that charles grimaldi????

Kerkdriel, Netherlands

I hope I can get Culebra. I would like to have that one. The man I am going to get cuttings from has it. But he has no rooted cuttings. But I hope I can get one unrooted en try to root it myself.

Barnesville (Charle, GA(Zone 8b)

They are cuttings, Let's pray they All make it. I sure will. That is a Beautiful, gold ,isn't it.
What do you root yours in ,Jori? I have the first ones in Peat.
These are in a galvinized bucket of water. They were so pretty He had them planted all around his house.
It was a beautiful jungle. Wish you could have seen it. I didn't take as many pic as I wanted but got a couple good ones.
This one pictured above had a seed pod on it, I did get a pic of it.

Yes, it is Charles Grimaldi, thank you.That is a cutting he gave me. They were so nice.
My baby Summer Sunrise is still growing. It is about 2 1/2" I hope it stays alive til next spring.
I love these and actually saw my first triple. they are gorgeous.
Charleen

I'll root mine in potting soil with perlite. I use clonex as growhormone. Until now I never had one not rooting.

Barnesville (Charle, GA(Zone 8b)

wonder would my rooting hormone work?. I
thought I may try potting soil to see if it would work as good as peat.
I really hope they all make it. They were no pretty , he had some in pots,
some in the soil and I saw NO GH.
Charleen

I am always afraid of waterroots. I have learned that they have trouble adjusting to soil later. Maybe this doesn't count for brugmansia's but it counts for some other plants. Planting in soil works great for me (for everything) so I'll keep it with that.

Elizabeth. I think your package arrived today. I haven't seen it yet, but my neigbour just called that something has been delivered there for me. I am not waiting for any other packages so it must be yours I think. I already send my husband to the neigbours. I already have my pyjama's on.

Ladoga, IN(Zone 6a)

WhooHooo Charleen, you sure got some good ones! Is your Misty Pink ...Valley Misty Pink? I have been eyeing that one, cause my youngest daughter's name is Misty.It a pretty very pale pink. Your yard is going to be beautiful, next year! It was nice of him to give you 3 free ones!
Jori, hope it is Elizabeth's package!
Dee

Barnesville (Charle, GA(Zone 8b)

he just has Misty pink. I hope you got your pkg. Jori I know you will love it.
The girls are very generous.
Lucky I dropped my phone and had to go back. He had them cut and was waiting with them in his hand. He was so nice. So was the entire family. Love these plant people.
Charleen

Ladoga, IN(Zone 6a)

Charleen, I looked them all up.Flame and Salmon Perfection are to die for!..lol You will get them all rooted. I have faith in you.

Their yard sounds beautiful.Sounds like it would just be a nice place to visit.
