TIG AND AZALEA RAIDED ME.............You'll have to ask them for seeds.........
just picked brug seeds
Surely you must have a few more seedpods forming as we speak. Perhaps some Butterfly crosses?

Arlene,
Are they still there? Here's hoping y'all had a great time.
Tig! Azalia!YooHoo!!!I'm seed starved!!!
we're here (says tiG)
we have a truckload, and we're going to be leaving here shortly. Wish us luck that they all make it safe and sound. You just wouldn't believe her yard, she has every plant imaginable!!!!
see you soon (bye from FL)
Wish we could be there! Hope you all had a wonderful time. Is everybody's mouth dry from talking? ha.
Hibiscus, they left a hair before 12:00. it really seemed to me like there was more room on the truck.....then again, they are pros at packing. was so wonderful to meet them.
Arlene . . It sounds as though all of you had so much fun and yes, I bet that you do have one of everything in your yard. What a wonderful place for anyone to visit and you are such a gracious person to welcome people there.
i picked two pods, while the girls were here, unknown white X ? and insignis pink X? tig got a cutting of what i believe is twisted sister with a baby bud on it. i am so excited my white pearl X big is opening up, monday at latest they should be open for my first look!
had such fun with tig and azalea, so glad to meet them.
They are sweeties aren't they? So glad y'all had a good time today.
just wanted to post real quick that I'm home, Azalea is about another hour away. We had such a wonderful time, it was a real blessing! Yes, there was room on the truck, but we're old and have to think about putting all this stuff in the ground!!!!!!!!!!!
mine all look great after the trip, I will post more tomorrow, going to spend time with my sweetie now:)
tiG, you can't be that old! Wait until you see me!
you guys are so lucky,plant raiding with permission,what more could you ask for?
Glad you're back. You must post a list of your loot!!
Hi everyone - I finally made it home at 8:45 - long day, short night. Had to stop twice between Tig's & home to add more tape!! Will explain that later!! Plants looked fine when I unloaded them. Arlene is a doll, so patient with our silliness!! Would you beleive we were out in the yard sniffing Brugs at 1:00am?? I never expected in my life to see so many Blooming Brugs all in one place - and the fragrence is "heady" it's truly Brug World!!
Pics later - Bath time!!
PJ...I was getting worried about you! Forgot you had to unload...glad ya'll made it back safely!
Good nite!
Reb
Wonderful, so glad everything went well and you are safely home, tired but happy?
Glad you all had such a great time. Can't wait to see or hear what all Arlene shared with you. She is so nice to help everyone out when they need something. I've thanked God many times for her when I think about all the things she has sent me. Arlene, you are a peach of a gal.
here are my pictures: http://davesgarden.com/editgj/viewentry.php?rid=18145
I got Versi Peach, Shirleys Peach, Spring Peach, had small ones of these but the ones I have now are over 6 ft, multitrunked and blooming. Also got 2 of Erics hybrids that I didn't have, they haven't bloomed yet. Cannas, bananas, ginger, salvia, gloriosa lily, amazon lily, achimenes, firecracker plant, a variegated EE, a dark green with black EE, a sago palm, and I can't even remember what all I got!!! sure am happy though:)
Wow!! Arlene, I'll be down tomorrow. Have the loot ready for me.... :-)
a great raid!true plant nappers!
and what the heck is a EE ?
elephant ear:) sorry!!!
Tig, just saw your pics - your pretty fast!! Course you had an extra hour or so!!
tig and cc, it's a micky mouse taro, xantho something something...... Ms Brugie, you can have everything you want....except for white pearl X big. well, maybe i can find a place to cut on it.
Tig ....DUH...its way past my bed time ,I shoulda figured that out
Arlene take mickey mouse BACK to Disney
Well Arlene, looks like I won't be able to make it. Guess you figured that anyway. I have a White Pearl X Big, just hoping it will be really special and come out as a double apricot. If not, I'll get a cutting from you down the line some time. Thanks for offering everything to me. I somehow knew you would do that. Guess that is your generous nature coming out again. Talk later.......S
Welcome back, glad you both made it home safely. Sounds like you all had a great time. Great pictures. Even greater packing job in the truck with the list of goodies you all hauled back.
Arlene, It sure looks like you've made two ladies real happy but you've also made lots of others including myself real happy too with your generousity.You are very much appreciated.
