Welcome Hibiscus, glad to have another addict here.
Tongue hanging out!
Welcome Hibiscus Gloria!! I get confused between brugmansia, brugman, brugie, and brugcrazy... LOL. I think I have them all straight now tho.
Poppysue, I'm glad I'm not the only one!! It took me a few months to get all those sorted out!! Liz and Brugcrazy are different, but is Brugcrazy also a Liz?
Calalily in a state of peretual confusion :-)
Cala,
Brugcrazy is a Jeanne. It took me a while to figure out that brugman and brugmansia are the same person, unless I'm way out in left field. With DG getting so many new members every day, we will probably all be confused before long. I know I am. I can't keep flowox and poppysue straight. Don't know names there to go with the ID name.
Brugie probably cause we're both Susans. Here's one that flipped me out. Calalily's name (Susie French) ... My maiden name is French. What are the chances of that?
sue, that is weird!!! LOL!! Brugie, yes, brugmansia aka. brugman aka Eric is our resident expert. Brugcrazy isn't a Liz.
OK your confuzing me more.......
I too was confused by "Brugmansia" and "Brugman" at first. I get Windsurfer and Flowox mised up, because they are both from Ohio I guess.
brugcrazy is Jeanne. I'm Liz - email brugnut. More confusion!
Where I lose it is just when I've figured it out here, I run into the same people elsewhere with different IDs.
Funny thing, I'm also a Gloria. lol
Jean
You poor kids, stuck with Gloria as a name, I didn't really want it but mom liked it and it was popular way back then!
I suppose you are all Gloria Jean, as I am?

Hibiscus,
yes we are all Glo Jean's...must have been a popular name at the end of WWII. Here is a picture of our name sake.

all those old movies, how did i miss this name!!
Yes, that's where it became so popular, Gloria Jean, the movie star.
Arlene, you must be younger than us, if you didn't know about her, a real beauty.
i love to watch old old movies, although i haven't seen many lately, will be on the look out for her. i must have just missed the curve, born in 51, mom was only 16 years old then, she was a shirley temple freak best i remember.
my middle name is Arlene, can I join the 'same as' club?
I just clicked on the hyperlink to go see Gloria Jean (who the heck is she?) and thought I'd never get back here. I was born before most of you and I've never heard of her. Guess that's what I get for living on a farm and never going to movies as a kid. Arlene, you are just a young thing too. Is there a forum here for old people? I think maybe I should go there. Starting to get a complex!! :-)

I thought I was a little confused when I signed on here.....NOW I'm not even sure what my name is anymore!!!
Meems, Brugie, Wind, Flow, I Dont know. Think I am going to go lay down put a couple seed pods on my eyes a flower in my hair and think about who I am. Sooooooooooo fun. :0)
Arlene, You and I are the same age. I was born in 51 too.
Brugie, from seeing your picture you're still a spring chick too. Don't forget girls, we don't get older, we get better.
You are right Snow, but some days the old part comes into play. I was born in 44, didn't think I'd ever tell that, so you guys are a lot younger than me. Right now I need to be outside working in the dirt. I'd sure feel younger. This cold and dreary weather makes me feel like I'm much older than I really am. At least we still don't have the snow.

Brugie, I tried to be a kid today when DH and I went outside in the snow. He said let's have a snowball fight.It sounded like so much fun. I scraped some off my car and started throwing. Reached down to make the 2nd snowball and the old back gave out and he had to help me hobble back into the house.Talk about feeling old. I felt about 90.
OK - Meems - if you're going to lay down with seedpods on your eyes, Preissel say your eyes must be between 64F and 79F~~ you also have to keep them moist, and about 1/5 humous on top of the seeds. You can't move for between 10 and 20 days. See ya at the end of the month!
Liz, Believe me if I could get some of the Brugs growing I have seen here I'd do it!!!!!! I REALLY couldn't sleep last night thinking about Kinds, colors, what, where,, when, how, etc, etc. It really is an obsession isnt it!!!!!
Hey Snow, I hope you aren't laid up really bad. Guess we just never lose that little bit of kid in us. Hang in there and get well soon.
Meems, you hang in there too. It gets worse before it gets better. I haven't made it to better yet. I swear that I eat, drink, and sleep with brugs on my mind. My obsession has become obsessive, compulsive. I order more than I can even take care of, but have to have them, you know.
