I am excited. I have never had blooms this early in the summer and never thought I would have one with this many blooms at once. Everybody post theirs loaded with blooms but I have never had more than at few at a time. So I am thrilled. I got buds on about 6 different ones now so I will have blooms all summer. Instead of just at the end of summer when it's about time to bring them back in. Now if the dang seedlings would start blooming I would be a real happy camper. lol
Oh! I would be excited too!! I got 2 blooms on EP, and was excited, I can just imagine your excitement. Looks wonderful! Love those DLs too!
How wonderful!!! Isn't it great when they flush out like that!!!! I'm still waiting for mine to do something... anything...
Peggy, is that whiskers? Beautiful plant. Missed you!!!!!
The high heat of summer will keep certain species of brugs from blooming till the cool evenings of fall. Suaveolens and its hybrids will bloom in the summer heat because this species originated in Eastern Brazil..in the tropics...most other species of brugs are mountain dwellers...warm days..cool nights.Versicolor,candidas,and sanquineas are in this group..they like cool nights so they bloom late in the season or very early in the season if the tree already has a Y on it.
Wonderful picture!!!!
Alright Peggy!! What a great looking Brug!!!
WTG Peggy! I have never had one do that yet .. just a few at a time. What a beautiful site.
Beautiful! I betcha that smells heavenly!
Very pretty, Peggy.
Very pretty Peggy. Can't wait to see one blooming like that in Iowa.
Wow! Guess your brug wanted to give you a slightly belated birthday present! What a nice one it is! Gretchen
Excellent information Eclipse.
Glad to see you.
Mystic, that is a lovely brug and should be enough blooms for fragrance all over your yard. Nice flush of blooms. Donna
Wow, what on earth have you been feeding that thang?
Just Beautiful!
Wow you are loaded down. Beautiful
great Peggy! Now you are really hooked.
Where Ya at Mystic? Is it Whiskers? Nice Tendrils,Oh never mind,I know where you are,out by that Brug.
Thanks everybody.No it's not Whiskers it's Anitque Lace and it smells wonderful. Thanks Barb I missed you too. Sure wish I could have made it.
Everything at Peggy's is gorgeous!! This brug was absolutely covered with buds when I was there Sunday. I am sure she will have lots of secrets up her sleeve this summer. She has been working her buns off in her gardens and it is really obvious! Even her grass looks great. LOL
Wow Peggy! Show us some more pictures! Your plants look great ;-)
It is gorgeous! Your garden must be filled with fragrance like being in paradise!
Mine still hasn't made a Y yet. I'm going to have to go do some trunk tapping and see if I can hurry them up. LOL!
lol Shirley, Ive been tempted to do some tapping myself. :o)
Wow Peggy, that one sure is loaded! It looks great.
lucky you! i'm still waiting for mine to do that. they're still too small though.
Mystic, your brug is beautiful and so healthy, I love the way it's growing!!
Eclipse, I'm so glad I read your post, which I already suspected, re the heat and blooming. That means that I'm really going to be careful about my brug selections & I really hope the ones I've selected will continue to bloom.
Mystic your brug tree looks gorgeous. I have buds on several now, but our weather is so cold, 38 degrees this morning, which is why I am at the computer. I am sure the brugs are not too happy with that temp, and neither are the tomatoes, but the lettuce loves it!!!!!!!!!!! Donna
VERY pretty! Love that color. It's so nice to have blooms early.
Thanks again everybody. All the storms have sure played havoc on them but AL has been uprooted and turned over 3 times already and doesn't seem to phase her a bit. lol I finally got her truned a different way and put a big rock in the top of the pot to hold her up. Knightii is blooming now has 4 or 5 blooms. I was so proud they all looked nice and green, but with all the rains and storms now they are getting that pale feed me look. lol Chele thank you for the compliments on the garden heck , I have seen some of these folks gardens mine are nothing compared to them. Poppysue more pictures of what brugs or daylilies? lol
Peggy, Antique Lace is one of my favorites and I hope mine grows up one day to be just like yours. I am so happy for you that you are getting blooms now. Also, I think you have a beautiful place. . . I remember pictures from last year. We all missed you not being at Roz's.
Did I tell you that the gator ate my AL??
You see mine right now, it has tiny, tiny blooms 4" or less... Loaded... Susie I have a couple for you, just whoop that gator if it gets near it, I hear them Texas gators like pork.
The gator ate a BRUG????
doesn't that worry you...a gator hallucinating in your back yard???
Only if she oink's
Ah CC, it's okay. I fed him a sandwich(not chicken though).
Yeah Tracey, they like BBQ, lol. I think the brug made him a little happy, he was chasing the neighbor. He thought she was a girl gator! Last I saw him, he was wearing a brug bloom like a party hat, looking for some pork ribs!
Susie I can start ya one. But it sounds like it might draw gators you might not want it. lol
Aw you're sweet Peggy. I haven't seen the gator in a few weeks. I think he's over at the neighbors and I hope he stays there!
I hope he does too!
Your Brug is absolutely goregous! It's absolutely loaded with flowers!! How is the fragrance???
