I'm not sure if we have discussed this before but I have this Brug marked "Eric Knights Candida Pink." Eric do you have any idea what I'm talking about. I believe I got this from Arlene Via Eric. This Brug looks a lot like EPink to me. Does this Brug now have a name?
Thanks

Hi, Glory, hope you are doing well. i thought i had a candida pink from eric, but i've never seen it bloom, except pink floyd, which is not like his beautiful pic he posted last summer, if i had that one it has disappeared without me seeing it bloom.

Arlene,
I tried to get Eric's email address off of Dave's but it keep timing out on me.
I sent it to you Glory
here's Glory's picture
I gave a pink candida out a bit ago to a few people. Unfortunately, the pink candida was of unknown origin and resembled a weeping willow with the way its branches grew so thin and hung down to the ground. It was however a very heavy bloomer. I may have also given a few seeds and seedlings from this hybrid out to a few different people as well. My suggestion, cross it to the weeping variety of pink candida if anyone has it to be sure its not that very same one and has simply not started to lower its branches yet.
RK is said to have these weeping kind of branches as well as your x candida pink. I have sown a new batch of the x candida pink seeds and hope that some of the seedlings will have the weeping habit. I have a RK underways and if there is any weeping seedlings that cross will be obvious. Imagine such weeping cross grafted on the top of one of Daturapods 3 m high suaveolens stems? That would be brugs worthy of any entry driveway. One at each side *lol* With the branches hanging two m. down and cut like those weeping willows grafted on cherry stems or long straight willow stems. wig-Brugs *lol*
...and with long versicolor flowers..LOL
*lol*lol* Bruno, excellent *LMBO* ... with versi flowers it would make the tallest weeping tree with the longest earrings *lol*
Put me down for 2!
