from my kitchen window last night. Hey, guys, when you only have one good one blooming, you are limited in posts! I need to make a run to Arlenes for one of her 6 footers in bloom.............
looked like a decorated Christmas tree!
sigh, i try not to look at the sangs since the turn to mush here..... that is gorgeous.
It's gorgeous. I can only hope mine lives long enough to bloom. It's in the shade right now and is a bit floppy but still alive.
it would be christmas year-round if we could develope one of those beauties that withstad our heat.
simply gorgeous, kell

Kell, your sang is just beautiful. I'd take Christmas trees in July if they would look like that.
Kell . . that is beautiful. With our heat, I cannot even think about growing them.
Kell,
You are making all us southerns drool. What a beauty!!!
You have yourself a beauty there Kell. Very nice.
well it is my only claim to fame on the brug forum! I have started to look at it with new respect since you all appreciate its beauty. I have been too busy eyeing your brugs with lust. It is in full sun and grows like a weed. I literally cut away at least 2 full sizes or more of it a year. If I donot cut it back every 2 to 3 weeks it smothers the surrounding plants. I do not think it has frozen to the ground even in the big freeze a few years back. last year when my other brugs lost all their leaves or froze to the ground, it just got the top foot or so burnt. It soon outgrew the damage. I recall that the trunk is ugly so it may have frozen back once or twice. I will take a picture of the trunk later, it is huge. The sprouts come right out from the base, all growing horizontal out (not up to the sky), all the way up so you do not see the trunk at all. just a solid wall of green.
Someone (Taji z7 ) on the garden web said that Herrenhauser Garten will grow like that here................. then you all will really have brug envy! LOL
Wow!! That is gorgious. I have one planted that is three ft., tall now. I am wondering if I will have to dig it and pot it before winter set's in. We do get frost and an ocassional night of freezing tempratures. Can anyone
tell me. Does anyone know the answer to my question. I am in zone 9 Calif?
Thanks Patricia
That is absolutely outstanding!!!! You're not coming to my house- I'm moving in with you!!
That sanguinea is so clean looking. WOW! lucky girl!
kell, It's absolutely beautiful. Mine have Y'd but no buds yet.
Jerodsmom.........i live in zone 9 also............ in fact you are much hotter than i am in the summer so does that mean colder or hotter in the winter??? I am sure it will do great all winter in the ground! If not, I will give you a huge cutting in the spring!
