working on shapes

okay, I think I know this is versicolor (hanging, recurve, one split in calyx and no opening between calyx and corolla). (4th day of bloom btw:)
if I want this shape, do I use it as mother or father?? how does that work?

very lovely tiG :)!! love the form, color and shape, is it fragrant too?

very. will have a few cuttings come fall.

pls. reserve some for me. thanks :)!

What a beauty! Nice flower :)

rose, where did you get it? just curious

I think it is from MSJen not so sure.

Another nice picture tiG. I think we need one of the experts to answer your question tho. I sure have no idea.

Possibly one of Eric's creations?? Lovely bloom

it is!! I wish he'd come look at the pictures!

Amber Rose... Dr.Sues x Ecuador pink.

so pretty..........I have a great euro pink to trade tiG.

Eric, this isn't AR!!!! this is Spring Peach, 4th day

arlene, this is the same flower as that darker one!

The two look very similar.

I'm gonna love her then, cause I love this one!

What is Dr. D? I thought that was Dr. Seus and Ecuador pink.

it is http://davesgarden.com/s/359458.html

tiG this is absolutely stunning! I love the shape and the color.

TiG, it's so beautiful. When you get caught up with cuttings, I'd love one.

cala, i am down to one plant with 2 stalks. this is the one i called vpx last fall, i didn't send you one? i can't believe i have already passed this one out til i can't send any more.

Arlene, it's okay, I can wait. I gotta find somewhere to put the ones I've got. You may have given me a piece, I've been known to kill plants.

I'll have a few cuttings arlene.

;) Everyone love this Brug!!!

tig, If you have an extra cutting, I'd love one. Let me know. Thanks, Jan.

Jan, I'll be posting what I have for cuttings when it gets a bit later, I'll put you in the book to save one of these for you, and you might want something else then too.

I have this one too...they'll be lots of cuttings later.

tiG, this is not a versicolor. It has suaveolens genes. Its to see on the corolla tube. versis have a clear trumpet shape, like Ecuador Pink. The corolla tube is more funnel like.

I am afraid, the day will come, where you all going to kill me!

Monika, we won't kill you, we need you too much. I, for one, really want to know what is what and the parentage. This way we all learn lots from your years and years of experience. BTW, how long have you been growing brugs?

I think, its now 25 years, maybe a few more.

Monika . . . I hope that you never get tired of educating us on these wonderful plants. You have so much patience and I am grateful that you spend some of your time helping us to become more knowledgable.

Frannie

I would never kill you!! I am here to learn. I just took the description off NH and tried to figure from what the parents were:) But I do have a question now. All suaveolens don't have the skirty corolla??

this hybrid has genes of suaveolens, aurea and versicolor.
From suaveolens is the funnel shaped corolla tube, the skirts and the tendrils are aurea inheritance and the pending flower is versicolor influence. EP is almost a pure versicolor as my EP x Rothkirch hybrids look like x candidas. They dont differ very much.

still trying to soak it in:) funnel and trumpet confuse me.

Me too!!

No wonder you can spot these things so easily, Monika, 25 yrs. you are GOOD, thanks for any help you can give us.
