looks great. Of course it's the only bloom in the GH right now so it is very welcome.
Even the dbl stuffed
It does look nice and so does that pod to the left of the bloom. I should go to the garage and see if that bud on Whiskers is about to open.
And a beautiful one it is.Aren't you glad you have a greenhouse.
Wonderful - what cross did you do on the pod?
Nice. I still have two blooming in the house, don't have a GH, you lucky girl.
Yes, I'm very happy to have anything in bloom now. LOL
Liz, It's Butterfly
I can't wait to have blooms again. have a mid size bud on Butterfly, and I'm going to bring a few of them back into bloom on purpose. I miss them!!!
Very pretty Snow. Great looking pod back there. Come on spring.

Snow,
Your Candida Double White is very pretty.
Thank you.It sure would be nice if it dropped it's skirt some but it just refuses to do it.LOL Nice to have the Brug scent back again.
oh, I miss the smell!!
Don't we have a chemist among us that could figure out how to bottle that fragrance. It is going to be a long time until late June or July.
They would make a fortune Brugie!! Think of the fun names they would have!
My C. double white has finally Y'd and has small buds,about the same size as the creamsickle buds( the other creamsickle and pink beauty buds all fell off)
So now its a race to see which double blooms first
I've never had a double bloom.....
Don't ya'll pity me? LOL
oh no, your PB?? weren't those the first buds?
CC, I never did get a bloom on the PB you sent me either. I was bummed about that. Was so anxious and it just began throwing buds when the weather got cold. Drop, drop.
tig ,yes it was the first buds,still haven't seen it bloom
Shirley,we are in the same boat!
well, you did see it bloom, it was just in my yard:)
Right, but it probably would have bloomed differently in my yard. Seems to be a big difference in some of the brugs from area to area.
isn't that the truth!!! I want to adopt Hibiscus, I love her colors!!!!
Next time I go south I'm bringing home a truck load of Tigs red clay!
Well, you get the red clay, I'm going for the Doc's rabbit pellets. Good fertilizer and no weeds. I'm still going to try some miracid this summer with two of the same brugs in pots and see if it makes a difference in bloom color.
CC, she was in a huge! pot with cowmanure in the mix. come to think of it, she was one of my top bloomers....hmmmm
going to get me a cow!! LOL!
I'm just registering the cross - candida flore plena x Butterfly. When are the bouncing baby seeds due? Time enough
to get them in soil and blooming by the end of summer?
I sure hope so. I check it every day hoping it will be ready to pick. It should be any time now.
I really feel this is the year for the US double pink. Eric has a c. double white x Butterfly and I have 8 seedlings of a cdw x c. pink cross (guess where they came from!! )
if one of you two didn't do it, I'll be shocked!
