I am sooo happy!! I finally have a bloom!! I have been watching this thing for days now, just waiting on it to bust open. I was soo happy when it finally did!! Although it isn't quiet finished opening just yet, it's still pretty!
Can't remember the name of it, I just know that Cala sent it to me this past spring.
Many Thanks Cala!!
make sure you get out there after dark and see it in it's glory and smell it!!!
O tiG I am sooo glad you posted on this, I was just wondering if it was going to open up any more than it is now? I honestly thought that I might have missed it, thought it might have bloomed all the way open this a.m. and I didn't get to see it. So I am still in for a real treat huh?!! If that's the case, I can't wait until dark!!
hee hee
They are all worth the wait and I know you will love the fragrance once you get a whiff. You took a nice picture of your brug. Just imagine having a bunch of those blooms open all at once. You will be in heaven the first time it happens for you and it will happen.
Molly...congrats! You are hooked too!LOL Is this your first year? This is my second and it gets better and better!
The bloom should open more in the evening...mine close up some during the day and open again in evening!
Enjoy!

I am really looking forward to the day when I do have more than one bloom, and maybe that will be soon! keeping fingers crossed here!
Thanks Brugie *Ü*
Great picture Mollybee! It will be the first of many! Hope you have plenty of room.
LOL I'll make room for these beauties!! Would be a pleasure having a yard full of these!
Thanks Kell

Congrats Mollybee!
Hee hee Thanks PJ, I feel plum giddy b/c of it! :)

Simply wonderful!!!! I am hooked!! I could just stay out there all day with one stuck to my nose. LOL
congratulations MollyBee...Isnt it fun? I just had my third bloom....
Mollybee . . Congrats and I am so happy for you. It is exciting and I can tell you are already hooked!!
Thanks ya'll, I really can't say that I have ever been this happy about any of my flowers blooming before! I am just plum beside myself with happiness!!
Congrats,soon you'll be going nuts trying to have one of every variety!
What do you mean soon?? I want them all "now"!!! LOL
LOL LOL, congrats with the flower, MollyBee. If this is your first one I can sure promise you, that it won`t be the last. LOL I don`t know its hybrid name, but it is probably an x insignis. The broad part of the flower and the short tips speaks about B. suaveolens (http://davesgarden.com/showforumphoto.php?imageid=15301) and the upper part under the narrow tube is rounded like you can see it in B. versicolor(http://davesgarden.com/showforumphoto.php?imageid=15232).
Molly, if you get out early in the morning and take a picture, it will reveal more what it is and what it really looks like.
Congrats on your first bloom. Isn't it exciting?
Hoping to get a much better pic in the a/m or at least I am gonna try (being as it is saturday...might just have to sleep in *Ü* )
I am soo hooked!!
