Shoot, I looked at the tag and now I can't remember the cross, they look like aurea buds to me! It was Rosamond X something! This seedling is a left over from last summer that never bloomed. I have alot of them starting to bud for the first time.
Too exciting!!
I can't wait to see what you get. I got my fingers crossed for ya!
Woo Hoo Kell, anticipation is making me wait! I'm looking forward to seeing those blooms.
I'll be on the edge of my seat. Such a exciting time. Make sure you have your camera all juiced up and ready to go.
Wow, Kell. Can't wait to see the blooms. I hope they'll be some beauties.
Alright! Can't wait to see them! You have to be so excited.
Oh Kell...I'm so excited for you! I can't wait to see them!
I really love Rosamond and hope you get something flashy and fun!!!
SLike
I never seem to get dark pinks here. I will be anxious to see if Margie gets hers dark. The only one that gets dark for me is L'Amour and that is not really pink. So it makes it hard to evaluate seedlings. I would hate to toss a brug because it is light pink for me but it really would be dark pink for everyone else!
oh- boy!! i can't wait to see what it looks like exciting for sure!!
Gosh!!! A new seedling has absolutely got to be exciting!! Somthing brand new, that you get to see 1st! Wishing you your pink Kell!!!
Maybe this one will be the one!!
I bet it will be a dazzler!! I can't wait to see what beauty you get!
Bonnie
Keeping my fingers crossed for you Kell ... so exciting!!!
That's wonderful, Kell! Can't wait to see this one!!!
Aw shucks what can I say? This one is a beauty too! I am so envious of your green thumb! And all your glorious brugs! Please show us MORE!!!! Also just to satisfy my curiosity (cause I am dying here) How long does it take for a itty bitty little plant to produce something like that? I tell mine everyday to "grow babies grow" "Mama wants some pretty flowers" it doesn't seem to be speeding them along at a very rapid pace. WHAT IS THE MAJIC WORD? Please do not tell me patience, I think I am already running out. Is that the only way? :( I guess I am gonna have to figure out how to put a picture in a post so you all can see what I am seeing and tell me how I'm doing. When oh when will the newbie be worn off and I have blooms???
These were slow for I planted them late in the summer last year and left them in a small pot. They are in 2 gallon pots. I have a couple still in gallon pots and a couple in 2 gallon pots. They were kept outside all winter and didnot start growing again until recently. But with care, they could bloom if you got them going in February by the end of the summer.
I found another bud on another of Susie's seedlings........BF X Rosamond. And this one will be ready soon to pop forth! Actually I have a few buds on several new seedlings! Things are starting to bloom galore!
Wow, Kell. All those getting ready to bloom. Can't wait to see the pictures of them. I have my fingers crossed that it'll be one to knock your socks off. LOL
Me too Ada. I tell you I am really hooked on raising seedlings. It gives this old self a real thrill in waiting to see what I get.
kell...ever think about selling your seedling?
Got me grinning Kell, so excited....thinking PINK!
You want to buy some Margie? LOL
What have you got??? Maybe, probably, YES!!
I was kidding! LOL
In another few months I may be begging you to take some of them! LOL
Until then, you will just have to grow your own seedlings.......I will get you some seeds.
Its becoming exciting!!! Tell them to hurry up!
I keep my fingers crossed for you Kell, that it will be your 'dream' bloom!!!
Kell, don't ever toss a light pink unless you toss it my way. The light pinks are my favorites. Guess I just have a pale personality. LOL
Kell, we're as excited as you are about your seedlings and what they will produce. Talk sweet to them. LOL
These are all from Susie's seeds. I realized an interesting thing today. I have seedlings that did not bloom last year that are in the garden, not in pots, that are 8+ft tall and finally in bud. I have ones the same age that I never moved past a 3 gallon pot. They are in bud the same as the big ones but only 3 or 4 ft tall. And I have 3 - 1 gallon ones that have remained at under 2 ft and have not budged. They just stay the same. No Y.
Are Susie's aureas Kell? They like to grow big and tall.
How long does a seedling take to bloom usually? I have several 1+month old seedlings and am wondering if they will bloom on their 1st summer? I need to know as I plan on giving some away for Mother's Day presents. I'll need to give them cuttings if i doubt the seedlings will bloom this summer. Please advise!
Thanks, JD
Kell, You go girl! I can't wait to see them;)
Tracey was able to get some to bloom in 5 months, but the ones I grew last year took about 10 months.
Lots of the pinks Liz. You know me and pinks! BF, Rosamond and L'Amour.
Jeff, fertlize fertilize and fertilize
