Hi Doris
Thank you, I just wish they would Bloom, last year at this same time they were loaded, we had 17 days in a row over
90 degrees
Elizabeth
my Brugs are growing nicely
We have the same thing here, it's cooking everything, what brugs I still have are not growing at all, I am thinking of bringing them into the plant room where it is cooler,
Afternoon , well had to come in & put dinner on for daddy & Just as I put my tools into the garage ir started to rain they say possible thunder storms so guess I will curl up with a good movie this afternoon & rest this old body .
this is what i worked on for two days , today I have been weeding when i get it done will show how much better it looks :) HEHE.
This will look much better next spring :) ones the leaves are grown back on the plants I cut them all off for the transplant :) Less stress on them I Hope anyway .
MY INSIGNIA ??? THINK MIGHT BE MISSPELLED Has many buds on it OH SO Happy :)
it was starting to rain again so couldn't take pictures of the others but there is two others with buds also . :) so happy
I usually feed on sunday but was to busy this morning & couldn't get to it now with the rain I don't want to flood them :)
guess i better go sit with daddy awhile for he been alone all morning you all have a great day .

Doris
that might be a good idea, that way you can save them, it's just been to hot
Susie
that's really pretty, next spring it will be all grown in, looks like you're going to Blooms soon, I loved this mornings
rain, I didn't have to water, got a lot of other things done, have a great evening
Elizabeth
My back deck is a jungle
more of the jungle
that was the east end of the deck this is the west end
Susie
Thank you for the tour, everything is so lush & pretty, I know you just love your deck, we had rain again last night
so I don't have to water this morning, I was watching the weather report this morning, it's looks like after today we
have a cool down, that will be great for the Brugs, they might actually Bloom Yippee, have a great morning
Elizabeth
Forgive the mossy deck have to get it power washed yet Btw critters ,Plants , Rain, don't get much time to clean it :) cloudy & mosQueto valley out there this morning quess i will stay in. for the last two days they have been thick out there was never bothered with them all summer till now & that 'OFF Spay" Seems to attract them to me.
well i have laundry to get started so you have a great day will try to get back later.
Susie
Avon skin so soft helps keep them off of you, I don't blame you I would stay in also, I have been busy this morning
helping my DD move, I am glad I didn't have to water, so I had time to help her, her son is the most adorable baby
he loves his grandma, have a great afternoon
Elizabeth
your brugs are so beautiful, I can't stand this heat, mine are struggling.. your COT is awsome, I have a small one, does it like water? My prickly pear has not bloomed but has grown from a half of a pad to alot of pads, will it bloom this year? My Missbhavin from you is doing better now that I moved it to the pear tree, it just now has leaves. It is the stick to the lower left of the brug ring there.
Debra
everything I have takes a lot of water, I hope MBH gets with it for you, that's a pretty garden you have there, my Prickly pear didn't Bloom until the third year, I still have Blooms on them, unlike us they love the heat, we got lucky
the rest of the week it will be in 80's, so I should have a lot of Blooms soon
Elizabeth
now that we are having cooler weather, hopefully there will be Blooms, as soon as they start Blooming, I'll post photo's
it wasn't nearly as hot today as it has been all month
Elizabeth
MBH will be nice and fluffy for her winter stay in basement, but not even close to being in bloom before then. Okay by me, better to get her root system strong..
glad you have a cool down, it has been a brutal summer for all of us down here..
Debra
it has been brutal. it sure hasn't helped us have loads of Blooms, maybe next month we'll have loads of Blooms, come to think of it, none of my plumeria's are Blooming either, I have them in full sun, oh well, whats your weather
like right now?
Elizabeth
well it got up to 88 today, 20 degrees cooler than last week. So everything is looking like it is spring now.. go figure..
some of mine are still in full sun, but the leaves stil turn yellow and crispy.. poor kaitlyn still puts out buds like a trooper, she wants to flush so bad..
these are brugs I moved from full sun to afternoon shade in front.. you can't see the tall ones, but they are there..
Evening all My BRUGS are LOADED With buds since i started feeding twice a week now they are small yet but going to keep up the feeding so i can see flowers before Fall its ok really for my Brother is helpping me turn our Garage into a Plant House for me :) Daddy had the tree cut down last week & so my poor Iris bed sure got trumped on it will look better by spring.
But this is going to be my NEW HOME For all My BRUGS & Other Plants I have to take in for the winter :)
It will be INSULATED When I Get done with it & windows on all four sides running water for my plants
so i won't have to carry it , My Brother knows my Passion for gardening so this will be my WINTER Garden House
I'm so excited .
well the shower is calling me then it is off to lay back for the night it has been a long day back for coffee in the morning :)
susie

Debra

Susie

Elizabeth

Elizabeth

Elizabeth

DEB IS MAYA A VARIEGATED brug ??? I would love a cutting when you cut back , I have a variegated called Solid Gold but its not very GOLD :)

Susie
