At the NERU crestedchik gave me some brug plants. Everyone wondered if I could fit them into my wagon. I brought them home and showered them with TLC and this is how they looked this morning [5 am]. Thanks crestedchik :-)This first one is white and has 15 blossoms, 11 currently opened.
This one has 8 blossoms, three presently opened.
Will they fit - ah there's the rub.
I'll put these in the passenger seat and let my guest walk home :-)[Edit] I don't remember who took this and the above photo - but it wasn't me. Thanks to whomever.

Ah where there's a will there's a way. LOLOL!!!! I'm like you. I can pack twice as much as anyone else can in the same space.
priority.
They look great Padre.
It is wonderful that you are having blooms. Very pretty.
They look great Padre! CC was lucky to find such a good home for her big babies. Do you have them in the whiskey barrels?
No, Poppysue. When I got home from the roundup I rushed to get them planted. Since they were bare root I was afraid they would dry out and didn't even put them into 5 gal. pots :-( I just put them in the garden near the sidewalk alongside the building. Visitors are comming from other parts of the campus to see them in bloom. :-)
Great looking Brugs, Padre.
So I take it everyone appreciated your gardening efforts this summer Padre. DO you have any different gardening plans for next year?
I am clearing out a strip of weeds and untamed growth along a 125' fence between our property and the University property. It will provide me a place to grow more brugs, with varying degrees of shade from partial to full. Having learned this year about what to do and what NOT to do I will give more thought to my plantings. This year was mostly throwing things in and seeing what happened. I hope to be more knowledgeable and a little more organized next year. :-)
Padre, most of us start out that way. I'm still guilty of finding a spot and sticking it there.
