These hybrid seedlings came up in less than a week when I planted them at work.This is Rosamond X Vers. Orange.I had many seeds and planted two batches.....everyone came up.
Every seed has sprouted it seems..
Have you bought an acreage yet? LOL!! They look good.
I think I'm gonna need one.......LOL
Lucky you!! Funny how some take off even as seeds.
They look great!
They look great! The cross is very interesting.
some luck - I have waited for months for some to pop. What is your secret?????
Great looking seedlings,
Now the agony of trying to find a place to plant them all,LOL.... They look great Kyle.
Kyle didn't tell you how they came up so early!!! his job is the largest greenhouse in Iowa.(now if i could get him to start some for me)
Kyle ,if they all come up,and they all get big...where are you going to put them all?Will they let you keep them at work?
Bet that cross will be cool!
Kyle, I have plenty of room landwise. You are welcome to use some ;)
heheheheh.........
you have heard of someone having a green thumb well Kyle has a green hand no matter what it is from plants to raising parrots ( he had over 100 parotts at one time) it's hard to keep up with him.
Yep Jerry, a few of us have even been at the Botanical Center and received a great tour of the place with Kyle as our guide. I'd bet you might even go to Kyle's page and look at the threads he has started and find a picture or two of his birds or discussion about his many birds in the past. This guy certainly doesn't sit idle very long.
Heres the secret............(WHISPERING)...soak the pealed seeds overnight in warm..not HOT water..and use bottom heat.At least 80 F.I have had very fast results this spring...this is going to be a great year for seeds I think.Everything I have planted has come up in record time this year. Hardy hibiscus seeds came up in 3 days instead of three weeks.Only my palm seeds are taking forever to come up.
Monika I thought this would be a fun cross.I hope they turn out colored and not white. LOL
Apparently, you have overlooked Rosamonds parent Ocre LOL!
I forgot! :-) YIPEE! they may be really pretty in that case!
great success... I was just gettıng ready to plant some seeds that I had gotten from Kell before I left the States. I hope I have as much success as you have.
Kyle, hope all is well with you.
Pebble...I'm doin pretty good. 3 more friends died lately...all seperately..I hate getting older...everyone you know dies off.:-)
I'm sorry to hear this Kyle. I guess it is something we cannot avoid. I'm older than you and have been very lucky so far.
you have to have a sense of humor & every day that i get up the 1st thing i do is read the obituaries if i don't see my name or see my picture i know i must have made it through the night.
Jerry, my MIL does the same thing. However, I think she is looking to see if any friends have passed. She will be 91 this summer. Still lives alone.
Wow Kyle you are going to have a full house. Great job
KYLE, what a time you've had. When you're ready for a vacation, come to turkey for a bit of R&R and explore the flora in Bodrum, where they do have brugmansias growing wild.....
oh Pebble, get us some pictures if you can! Hope you are doing well!
I've been ready for a vacation for the past 7 years..but no plant sitter will watch my plants for me...they say 700! Thats too many to water every day.So I sit. :-)
Kyle, I wish you
much luck with vacation and with your brugs:-)
(((L)))
Geeze Kyle that sounds like a job offer,where do I put in an App?
Kell, I will definately. But they are not any of the fancy ones..
Kyle, well if you can get rootdoctor to plant sit for you and you change your mind, you know where to find me.....
Gosh Kyle! What a good job you are doing! Im with Rooty, I will also help him, so you can get away!
Kyle, take them by the word LOL
But Monika, if he leaves it up to those two nuts to water for him, will he have all 700 plants when he gets back home? LOL!!
Shhhh,I am cleaning my clippers and washing my pants with the big pockets!
yeah! shhh Im gettin the BIG truck ready! And he WILL have 700 plants!! Maybe not brugs... lolol
