A good storm came through today (I think our friends in LA sent it to TN) and knocked most of my brugs over, uprooting Orange Cat altogether.
So, he's potted up and recoving in my office now. The fragrance in this room is through the roof!

Gosh Dave, doesn't it make you sick to see what these storms can do. We had a couple of them in Iowa this year too. At least it is about time to put things away for the winter. Nice blooms on the pink one.
Thanks, that's my old trusty Frosty Pink, my first brug given to me in late 2000 by SoCal. He's been in that same pot for 2 years now and probably will remain there for many years to come. :)
That's the same Frosty that was by your door last year? It still looks great. Glad you decided to bring Orange Cat inside.
I got an email today from someone wanting Orange Cat???
I've never heard of it - where,oh where, do I find it?
I remember coming home and finding mine scattered all over the deck and down the steps. Your heart just skips a beat for a minute. We have had some really strong winds/storms this year.
Liz, dave has it, seedling he grew this year.
Glad you decided to bring Orange cat inside...Lucky..I can't have to keep bloom inside or I would be get sick.. Yes allergy to those strong fragrance...
Cala: Yep, that's the same brug! It's famous thanks to this picture: http://davesgarden.com/fp.php?pid=11261
It's been a really good plant for me. Isabella Pink is looking pretty nice, though, and may replace it as the standard pink for this farmer. We'll see. :)

dave, you are the hardest working 'nut' I know :) !!
Really? I wonder how he found your Orange Cat?? LOL
did you see all the great pictures he put in the PDB of it??? really nice. (okay, I'm really trying to butter him up, so y'all just overlook me:)
Yeah Liz that's odd because I just named it yesterday. :) I have no idea. How did this person find you? Did they mail you through DG?
dave
Nope - from the other site. LOL. He said he spent 3 hours making up a dream list last night and Orange Cat was on it.
I'd patent it if I was you Dave!
Dave, I've got a couple of pinks you should see before you decide on Isabella, though she is a good bloomer.
I really love that name Dave. Orange Cat
Sorry to hear that mother nature got vicious down your way, Dave. She sure makes life miserable quite often:) Hey, wonder why nature is a "she"? LOL
Hmmmm...orange cat has instant internet fame! It really is a nice deep orange color :)
Don't forget your friends in TX!!!!
