hehe, kell I think you were talking about me, but I'm a she :) Susanne's the name. I need to get my stupid dg name changed!

I believe its something like Charles Grimaldi. But I'm not sure- I got the cutting from a friend's plant and she wasnt sure what it was. Can you tell by leaf shape if I'm wrong?

Thank you all for the compliments- they mean so much to me, since I look up to you guy's brugmansia knowledge!!

Suzanne, your brug looks great. Are you using something on it to make it shine like that? Sure looks healthy.

So sorry Susanne!

I doubt it is CG for Charlie is usually a yellowish green. The color of his leaves are not his best point!

The leaves look much like my Isabella, but Susanne, your's is a much brighter green. I too am curious about the shine. Are you using something to shine them with?

haha, just my old brug polish! lol Ya know, I'm not sure why they're so shiny-- they look like that in person too, even with out the camera flash. I grew it in water all winter and just recently potten it in soil. I can't think of anything I did that ya'll didnt tell me to do. :)

They've been in my north facing window since about jan- and thats the way it grew. It's much fuller, greener and shinier than my other 6. So, I dont think it's anything special I'm doing!

It very well might be Isabella-- although she's pink right? I remember these blooms being orangy/yellow, because it was blooming when I took the cutting.

I do remember though, when I took all these cuttings that this one started out a very deep green, whereas my dr suess was more on the chartruese side comparitively. So is there a brug that has characteristically deeper green leaves?

Here are 2 others that were its neighbors this winter and they dont look near as good.
