Well... this is it! It's certainly not a brug!~!! Boo Hoo
Bambi
IOCRAMA
It look's like the mini mee of a brug. But It's PURPLE......
It will put put big clusters of those little blooms and can be very attractive. A relative of a brug!
I bought 3 of these from Kartuz Greenhouses. It's been a little over a month ago that I got them and when I opend the box to unpack them I found the iochroma grandiflora blooming inside the box.
I potted mine up in 4 inchers from the little cubes they had them in. They had become pot bound since i've had them and they got potted up to 1G's day before yesterday.
Now I just need to do a search on basic care for them. I've just been keeping them in bright indirect light until they have to go in the GH for the winter.
The varieties that I got from Kartuz are :
Iochroma Fuchsioides
Iochroma Grandiflora
Iochroma Sunset
They have 2-3 others that I like and may purchase a little later on or early spring.
Pics of the ones I have are on their web page.

Open the site click online catalog and go to rare flowering vines/plants letters D-L and look for iochroma.
Hey Girlie....
I just love your Iochroma and I can't wait for pics of it in full bloom!!! I bet you fall in love with them, were any of the others blooming too?
