You got that brugcrazy - AND he squeezes fresh orange juice for you.
Oh man!! I've got real tears here. Great pictures. Can't wait to see real bloom up close and personal. Happy New Year Everyone!!
I used to use compost(horse and cow manure) from the mushroom plant. Had a truckload delivered every spring, made EVERYTHING grow like crazy! Roses had enormous blooms, now that I am growing brugs, can't get it anymore, they went out of business.
Enjoy your blooms! Thanks for sharing with us.
Looking good Irish.
looks real good irish. DS is working a litle this week at the goat farm. DH brought home a pick up of goat....stuff. i swear it looks like rich black soil. they put everything in a pile and burn it regularly. hoping to get more of it.
Wow! How nice to see green and a plant full of blooms outside. And isn't that a fruit tree in the background loaded with fruit. The only thing I'm loaded with is snow.
How many more days till spring???????
I'll bet it is his orange tree in the background. He has a picture of it on Tropicals. Gosh, what I wouldn't give to have some really fresh oranges right now. Of course, I'd rather have nice weather and blooming brugs.

Pete,
Nice!! My Mom still has Brugs blooming in her yard....I'm just 14 miles north of her but the frost has managed to zap mine already.
So Irish you have no problem using cow manure? Years ago, I used to use that on my entire garden but then I read it did soemthing bad......... what I can't remember. It sure is a reasonably priced additive. Love your tree, you have more room I see for more brugs......LOL
ms kell, probably the manure getting into the water. they make dairy farmers around her do something to try to keep the water supply from being affected.
Very pretty Irish. Whiskers is a favorite of mine . . but I would like to add that it would be very nice if it came in "pink" also!!
A pink Whiskers would be nice.
come on down Jeannie, it warm enough to sleep on the beaches
Kell never had a problem at all just as long as it isn't real fresh now I buy the baged stuff at the stores theres always room for one more brug

Frannie,
I'm working on a pink Whiskers but so far no luck. Mother Whiskers is in the greenhouse and full of buds so you know what that means....I'll be running in and out of there with the pollen and little paint brush. Wish me luck!!!
Glory, I hope you do get a pink whiskers. I love the yellow Whiskers' shape and color and the fragrance she puts out is wonderful. Good luck............
