My Rosa Traum isn't Adora

Woodsville, NH(Zone 4a)

Don't really care if mine comes out yellow, white or whatever. I'll love it no matter what color it is and you bet I'm gonna keep it. It will always remind me of a wonderful visit with four dear friends from DG every time I look at it.

sorry to come so late to this party but I just want to say that Cala sent me the pink in this brug in my box this week, so it is her fault!! I put it on a frosty here to make it pinker. Sorry, too late to give it back!

Kell, did I do that??? I knew it was pink the last time it bloomed. (what did you think about how much I got in those boxes, lol)

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)

I was just watering them all yesterday and was laughing at how much you got in those boxes........... and they all are doing well!! You are such a sweetheart! a pinkie at heart for sure!

Well, my insignis Rosea turned out to be white too. Cute little bloom, but that made two white brugs side by side in the flower bed. Maybe it will end up looking like one huge brug. I think it is really a white suaveolens. The only reason I can say that is because the one next to it is a suaveolens and they look identical in bloom, form, and leaf structure.

I was afraid that you got the one that came from mine that bloomed white. sorry. don't know which of the two sources I got it from that was the white, and apparently I've lost the other one somewhere out there. I hope you aren't mad.

Chariton, IA(Zone 5b)

Don't think you would ever see me get mad over a brug cutting. They are all pretty. I probably won't keep it though. Just too many whites around here while others seem to have too many pinks. However, I don't want anymore pinks either. Getting rid of some of them too. Really cutting back this year. Just too many to take care of.

Newnan, GA(Zone 8a)

I am sorry though:) I had wanted to give you something you didn't have.

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)

Send her an Esmeraldas tiG!! I know for sure she does not have that one.

Newnan, GA(Zone 8a)

LOL!!! she'd kill me!

Chariton, IA(Zone 5b)

Not if you sent me the real one. Have you seen a picture of it? I haven't yet, but heard it is to die for.

Newnan, GA(Zone 8a)

well, I'd send you the one kell sent me, but it was really FP, a practical joke:) that's why me and Cala got her!!! there's where her nickname Esmeralda comes from!!!

Deep South Coastal, TX(Zone 10a)

There is a real Esmerelda?

Chariton, IA(Zone 5b)

Gosh, I thought that was why you gave Kell the nickname, because of the real McCoy. Sure glad Liz posted the picture.

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)

but of course Cala, you think I am a phony??? I picked the best pink I could find to give to you!!! That is why I could not believe that you and tiG did not get the joke! How would I, ME AND MYSELF get such a pink that was not a Frosty!

Newnan, GA(Zone 8a)

Cala, at least you didn't know there was a real one. I did a search and found the real one, I was so excited!!!!!

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)

and it was terrible. tiG sent me a profusely love email that I had sent her such a fantastic brug. It was gush gush. I felt TERRIBLE!!! I felt LOW!! I felt HORRIBLE!!!

So Brugie, did you really think I had sent them a real Esmeraldas and not you?? LOL OHHHHHHHHHHHHH, is that why you never sent me my 4 foot L'Amour!!! I get it now. Lost in the mail you said....................

Lima, OH(Zone 5a)

Deep South Coastal, TX(Zone 10a)

And the darned thing is rooted!! Did better than the iochromas unfortunately.

Newnan, GA(Zone 8a)

I thought mine had kicked the bucket but nooooooooo, it's doing just fine, thank you! so I guess I have a FP after all.

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)

LOL and since I thought you would immediately know and toss it out, I sent you my ugliest Frosty........LOL

Newnan, GA(Zone 8a)

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)
