I have not had photos in awhile to post here, but Monika's 'Luise' is blooming for me right now, and I wanted to share her beauty.
She surely brightens up the greenhouse on this cold February day in PA :))

Liz states on her website that currently, she only ships within Canada - bummer!
That is correct, Liz ships only within Canada, due to the Import resrictions into USA Brugs have to be legally imported and keept under Control by US Agriculture Inspector for two years, if Liz at Brugmansia etc should ship to the US without Permit and Phyto those plants are illegal and considered by the US Custom and Agriculture as smuggled! Alice's Gottschalk Brugs are all legaly imported and have been in Quarantain for two years and have been released by the Florida Agriculture Dept
I do not know how this tread got turned into sales and promotions.
It was not supposed to be that ):
Alice, I think burgele was just clarifying the shipping of Liz's brugs - no sale nor promotions are being made that I can see. We are just excited for anyone who has these beauties, and drool for our own!
Thank you, Kay. Burgele is not who I meant.
I have people tell me they are not supposed to get brugs from me as I am not an endorsed vendor by this or that particular group. I really could care less who belongs to what group, forum, etc. one belongs to. I don't belong to any of them anymore.
But in truth, no one has the right to tell someone who or where to purchase something, and I cannot believe someone would be silly enough to follow that persuasion. Where someone chooses to buy it is their choice!
If seeing beautiful brugs is truly an interest, I have a Blog I have been showing them as they bloom:
http://beautifulbrugmansias.blogspot.com/
I am told a number of the photos have already been stolen from it though and appearing on forums I never gave permission.
So if you have seen some of them before, this is where they came from.
But the plants and photos on this blog belong to me
Thanks,
Alice

Alice, I have visited your sites, which show your amazing Brugs, many times - just wish I could afford to buy them! LOL I can't even get my old, in-the-ground, common Brugs to bloom!!!!
Thank you, Kay.
I was busy today cleaning, and did not realize that right beside me 'Luise' was blooming triple .. and I beat up the bloom a bit );
I was using the rake and watering, all the while knocking this bloom around ): She may come better around tomorrow, I hope.
But here she is triple. She surely is a beauty :)
Alice, I agree - just beautiful!
Very lovely Alice, I love the yellows and orange's
Fabulous link Alice! Great pictures of super brugs! ♥
Thank you :)
