Brug Seedling, "Lake Effect" x "Butterfly"

Ellicott City, MD(Zone 7a)

I have several of these Brug seedlings growing. They are beginning to put on a lot of new growth. Probably, it will soon be time to pot them up to the next larger size.

Can't wait to see the blooms on this vigorous grower!

Oh Shirley1 md, they look great and I love those pots they are in.. just the right home.

You're right, Gourd. They are the perfect size for baby Brug seedlings. I have a bunch of these. I must have acquired them over the years from different nurseries. It's amazing how many pots you will accumulate after a year or two of gardening!
