What'a ya think,how many more plants can I fit in there?
The left side is almost all brugs
fit more brugs in?
This is what it looks like from inside
and these are ALL creamsickle seedlings
WOW! What are you going to do, start a brug nursery? You are sure on the way......
how big is yours cc?? looks wonderful.
LOL CC. Looks grreat! Are you going to plant all those creamsickle crosses outside in the ground in spring? What did you use as crosses? I sure hope you get incedible ones!! My Creamsickle has only 1 pod on it. It keeps dropping them. :(
I think you can squeeze one more in there. Don't know how you are going to get around to water them though, LOL.
Looking forward to all the seedling photos next year.
Tig,its 10 X 20...I way need a bigger one.....
My creamsickle seedlings are mostly crossed with EP and one small group is crossed with one of Callas CG X EP crosses that stays really orange
And yes,they will be going out side in the garden in the spring,I may send some out because of lack of room......but for now I think they'll stay where they are till spring
My creamsickle seems to hold its pods really well,at least it did,now it keeps dropping them.....Gunna try one more cross with it
reason I asked is because DH is building mine, it's going to be 14x24 and I was wondering just how much could fit in there! LOL!!
I am trying to imagine what an EP cross would look like as a double in the size of Creamsickle. Definitely cool!
Well,I now have a few less seedlings....
I was in the garage,and noticed a peacock in the GH,I opened the door and there were 6 peacocks in the GH
The one was taking a dust bath and dancing in my creamsickle seedlings....There is stuff knocked over and trampled......
I love my birds,I love my birds.....If I say it enough maybe I won't be having peacock for dinner
Tig,thats a great size,and the first year you feel like you have plenty of room...till next spring when you realize you have so many plants you have nowhere to start the seedlings........LOL
the kids will have moved out by spring! then I can start the seedlings in the room I used last year. Just don't know where I'll put them come spring:)
you love your birds, you love your birds.
I have a question for you experts. A friend was kind enough to send me 3 brug cuttings. They had a few roots. I put them in the ground and wow! They are growing new leaves on them already. My question:
How tall do these get? Are they trees or bushes? Where should I plant them and how close to other plants or trees should they be?
Looks like Tucson is going to be great for them.
Any help would be appreciated.
You sure are packed in! I was wondering about your peacocks CC. Didn't you have one that lived in there last winter? You just keep repeating that phrase LOL.....
My my CC, and I thought I was going to have alot to winter over. Good thing our winters are mild and short.
The brug in the blue pot on the first photo. Do you know about how old it is? Trying to get an idea of how long it take one to get that big. Did it grow that big in one year?

CC, it looks pretty full to me. My GH is 12x 20 and I wish I had know then what I know now, because it is much too small for my needs.
Gosh, what would it have been like if you didn't have the greenhouse? I'm pretty packed in here with over 135 cuttiings. Can't imagine what it will be like here in another month or two.
last year was the first time with the GH and I still had to bring extra plants in the house....
The one in the blue pot is 6 or 7 years old,I've chopped it many times,its just such a reliable bloomer that I keep it in the big pot
I should have taken a picture of whats still in the garage that I can't fit in there......gotta sneak them in the house...slowly...so Chuck doesn't notice them......
I think I'm going to have to thin things out a bit in a little while. Too many cuttings started and no place for them to grow. Once rooted, I'll pick a good one for myself and share the rest.
