This is the same cross as Ma Souer, just about 1/2 foot taller plant, blooms are a little differant and the foliage is a deeper smooth green.
Blooming good!
It's really pretty but I think I like Ma Soeur the best.
Your brugs look so healthy and so neat............. mine want to come live with you! they feel they are slumming now.
Oh I still like Ma Soeur the best:) but her little sister is following in her foot steps!!!!
She looks good to me. I like the color, the shape, and the spurs too. She must be holding up in the heat too.
I usually just drool over the pictures here without saying anything but this is one time I have to say....WEEE DOGGIES, THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL! Ok I have calmed down a bit. What got me is the fact that they are in containers, I never knew that they would blooms so well and get so big in contianers and that is right up my alley. You did a great job TLyn and I intend to find out all of your secrets lol.
Tracey, looks great. Sooooooo many beautiful blooms!
Hi wind, this is the only way to grow them for me! Just about all of mine are in these 15 gal pots. I got some 30 gal, and them discovered I couldn't move them by myself.
Another beauty. I think I don't like you very much! LOL
Say, where would be a good place to get this size pot in bulk? Most of the nurseries here reuse them or say they couldn't get me a better deal than I could find online. I need a bunch!!
More power to ya and I'll will be checking for photos of your other beauties. I do hope you know that I am drooling lol.
oh Chele, the first sign of a serious brug problem, the acquisition of big black brug pots!
LOL Kell! I just need somewhere to find big pots and lots of good soil. Susie gave me a clue. Now I have to seek a supplier. whew! Then the digging and potting.........
This place isn't too bad.

Do you have one nursery that maybe knows you personally? The pot I get are ordered through the greenhouse I get a stack of 18 for $46 plus shipping. If they will check with their suppliers they could find them for you, most places want a minimum order of $300 to ship for you but you are better off to pay ups.
Thanks Tracey! Yes, there is one nursery I visit often and get all my seed mix, etc from. They do give me their plug trays all the time but they reuse the large pots. The people I have known there forever have left. :( I will do some more searching and see. Maybe I would do better to just buy all the nearly deads I find and save the pots. LOL My grocery sells them for $1 most of the time, rarely over $4.
Badseed, do you know a landscaper? Sometimes they will have large pots and will give them to you free or for a small fee.
Now that might be a good lead! I forgot a about a cute guy I have known for years-former client. :) Just so happens his family owns a landscaping company. Thanks Susie! I'll have to call him.
Wow Tracey it is so beautiful. Is there anything in your yard not blooming??? You have really been blessed this season.
