I can't find that brug anywhere. I've looked the green house over 3 times. I know I wasn't dreaming, but can't imagine where it's gone to. Here is a pic of some of the EP large plants branches I have. I also have found a smaller plant in a pot. Which would be the best choice to send to you? the plant in the pot, but it's not big enough or the cutting from the big branch on the main plant?
cala, did bill maybe move it? i read your other post about the temp issue, wonder if this one was really sad looking and he disposed of the evidence..
Don't worry about sending me those Cala. I want to see you get tons of seeds using those as pollen donor's this year I am trying to root an Ecuador pink as we speak. Thank you very much though. I have confidence I will get this branch to root, but if not...I will still have some beautiful pollen donors to use this year and I will disperse the seeds to members here when they ripen.
Brugman, i have an EP cutting rooting the log way, when i catch up with you with the DP and CS, can donate...btw, can either send you a pic for you to tell me where to cut or meet you and let you cut.....let me know!
someone posted a pic of the double peach last summer/fall, anyone remember where it is/who posted?
Eric, I can send you the pollen from the blooms!! Why didn't I think of that. I have the big(6ft) plants that have the "Y's" and can just pick the pollen and send it to you!! That way it won't slow them down to take cuttings.
Jen, I dreamed about looking for that plant. I had a nightmare where it was sitting in the cold frame(no heat) and got chilled. I almost drove down to the greenhouses to check on it!!
If you think you will have some Ecuador pollen within the next two weeks or so I could use it to pollinate my aurea double. Of course I will be pollinating before the flower opens so pictures posted will just show a torn calyx and little to no corolla. Hence, my wife is perpetually mad at me. Lots of flowering Brugmansia, not a single one with a flower on it...all pulled off long before they get to bloom to set seedpods on em. This may be a slight exageration, but its not to far from the truth to hear her tell it. She's always complaining," When are we going to get to see something besides seedpods from those Brugmansia. Of course she is partial to the aurea's, arborea's, and of course Roses. I don't hold anything against her though as she has good taste in her first two choices. Who couldn't forgive her for wanting a few roses in the yard as well. By the way Arlene, the rose you gave her is doing great. Do you happen to remember what color it is though?
It's a Cecil Brunner i think, lightish pink, smaller blooms. The magic in old roses is the quantity of blooms, not the size, and the fact they will bloom almost all year. if you clip off the old flowers, in six weeks there will be more.
Will email you, need an answer on that DP!
Arlene,
I believe it was Glory who posted the Double peach...I won't swear to it though. I did have the chance to see the double peach in bloom a while ago. It looks like it will be a good seed setter and pollen donor as well if memory serves me correctly. The corolla is very thick as well...again, if memory serves me.
found it here: link to the double peach from native habitat
