Look how dark

Butterfly is blooming, it is the darkest pink I think I have ever seen it bloom.

Oh Mary! What a beauty! The color is absolutely 'to die for'! I just can't wait for mine to bloom!

Very pretty picture Mary. Butterfly is a very nice brug. This is a got to have brug in my book. I'll never be without it if I can help it.

Gorgeous bloom Mary. I love Butterfly also and saw it bloom for the first time in Dec or Jan and I was amazed that it was so dark in the cold weather.

Beautiful Mary!

Beautiful! My favorite.

Lovely Mary

Oh my! Ive heard that butterfly is a must have, I have seen why over and over. Now I think its time I get one.
So pretty! Thanks Mary

It is beautiful Mary!

Hey Mary...you have mail!

Oh! What a beauty. I can see why you all are so infatuated with these plants. I have become smitten also.
Beautiful. Beautiful flower Mary!

Welcome Bj!!! There is no turning back now! LOL (evil laugh)

Welcome BJ. Brinda is right. Once you have seen one, you have to get one and then two and three and the list keeps getting bigger and bigger. Hope you get some and get started with them this year. They are so much fun and smell so good in the evening.

Beautiful pic of a beautiful brug, Mary, lucky you!

it's beautiful Mary.. I can't wait till mine start to bloom.. Anxious.. anxious..

Just beautiful.

I love BF Mary and your pic is so great. Now I want mine to get going. I am going to get out and water with superthrive now.

Welcome Bj! So happy to see another new face. We are getting so many California members now. Where abouts is Lewiston?

Miss Munché, so funny (and great) to see your name here!

Beautiful bloom, Mary. I hope when mine blooms, it's that dark.

Ah so lovely! mine just finished with a burst of blooms last week. I for sure have one pod growing & possibly 3, if the other 2 crosses take:)

Best of luck on your pods, Lady Swan. Hope you get some beauties.

Thanks Dear Ada!
How's all your seedlings doing?

Oh, they're doing good. I gave them some light food today. Maxicrop.

Wow Mary! Is that outside now or is it still in your greenhouse?

Outside on the deck, here are some more pics.

Now, let me tell you a funny story. See that picture of the deck, that window is the small kitchen window over the sink that looks out over the deck. One morning, I walked my BF out as he was heading for work early, stepped out on the front screened porch to kiss him good bye. I had a very big shirt on, and that was all, lol, nothing under it. Well.....the front door locked behind me. I hurried around to the back hoping the back door was unlocked, alas, it was locked too. Sooooo, I had to move everything out of the way, climb up on the deck railing, slide that window open (lucky for me it was unlocked) and squeeze my big behind through that tiny window, with everything hanging out (I am sure if the neighbors that live behind us were looking out their windows, they saw my big white butt cheeks!)

Back to the pictures, more of Butterfly last night.

Mary...I love your 'butterfly' and setting...just beautiful. Your story was too funny! So glad your window was unlocked! What a picture you painted for us!

I could really enjoy washing dishes at your kitchen sink if I had all those brugs and blooms to look at. Beautiful. Would have loved watching you trying to get through the window. I wouldn't have fit, for sure.

Mary, your story is too funny. I've always had a fear of doing something like that. LOL

Gave a whole new meaning to the word Moon Flower!

LOL Tracey, too funny!!! And Mary...good thing you got in! Oh my, sounds like something I would do! Your deck is just beautiful!!!

Now, THAT would have been some picture......to write home about!

I LOVE the Butterfly and I loved the story, ROTF!! I love it when stuff like that happens, ain't life fun??!!!

I was looking at your pink butterflies and thinking of your white butt! LOL

LOL What a story, Mary. I sure hope I never get locked out.

That is a beautiful bloom.. and what a story. I can just see you scared to death that someone might see you.

They are so beautiful! Love those pink!

Thank you Mary for the lovely pictures (the ones you posted and the ones you just told us about). Too funny. I have a small "Butterfly" that has not bloomed for me. I'm taking care of it and feeding and watering and waiting. Hope it is as lovely.
