Me wanna buy one too...in the future that is...LOL...
I thought I died and went to heaven!
Gosh, even tho I have the picture of this brug on my desktop, I still have to come back here every once in a while and look at it and the other pictures of it that Kell posted. I can't think of a single brug that I've had or any that I've seen in the US that is as impressive as this one is. I sure hope it will continue to throw blooms just like the ones I've seen so far. There have sure been a lot of great brugs hybridized in the last year or two. Our gardens should be ablaze with color in the coming years.
You are so generous Kell! Thank you for my name on the list also. I would buy her in a heartbeat! Gosh, no more pepto! You are onto a darker place now!
Oh my......when i saw it.. my mouth dropped..
I haven't been around here for awhile.. too busy to check out.. still fighting with spidermites on brugs.. I am all behind on those news...
It's.. soooo deep red/pink.. I never thought I would see one like this.. What is name???? I want one!!! LOL
You are a celebrity! Everyone is buying VF11, company should give you credit for telling you use it.
Bet you didn't get much sleep last night, know I wouldn't!
It is a real beauty.
It is an amazing color, Kell. I am very happy for both you and Susie. I can`t wait to be able to get one of these. I am also holding my breath to see what Susie has next. Oh By The Way, Susie, I am more than willing to take some of the burden off of you and grow some of your seed-just so you can have more time to create something else we will all want.LOL. My best wishes to you both.{{{{{{{{OO}}}}}}}}}
Thanks all. And just think, lots more have Susie's seeds and we may get an even deeper one soon! I must say this is so much fun growing from seed. Last year I got one incredible white and this year so far I have 2 real beautiful dark ones. There are so many of us now hybridzing we are going to come up with some great ones. And some have Monika genes to work with so we really will be putting on a show!
VF -11 is fantasitc. I have used it for years. Seedlings get real fat stems on them from it. And annuals bloom their little hearts out when you spray it on them. It is my favorite fertilizer, I feel it is more of a tonic. It has never burned and I have a heavy hand!

I just wrote to her.. LOL I think I need some of that! :o)
Kell, and Susie, let me just say again, I am so happy for you. I know I have said it over and over. But Im so so proud of you 2. I know it will be much evaluated before its sent out or sold, and that makes me for one feel very confident in knowing that it will be set to high standards. Im SO anxious already. Its awsome, and as far as darkness, IMVHO nothing (that I have seen) from US brugs compares to this color, NOTHING!
Kell, I know I am a newbie to the Brugs, but when you do get ready to sell cuttings, starts, seeds, or whatever of this plant please add me to the wait list. I am going to get some of the VF 11. Sounds like it can be used on everything. Jenny
Well, If I can't get a freebie (*sigh*), can I buy a cutting?
I do not sell anything! I do not even trade because I am a pathetic procrastinator. I just give away usually if you can wait till I get to it. However, Susie will get this to grow herself ASAP and we will see how it does for her. If it is really a keeper. I sure hope it is for I can't wait for all of us out there to have her to hybridize with it to try to get even closer to a true red.
You can see this brug across the yard. It really is amazing.
Shelly, you are so much fun! You really love this one. I do too! LOL. If only I had taken care of this one better or put her in the brug bed, she would be huge now instead of stunted in a 2 gallon pot. I do not even have any side growth on her to cut. My urge now is to kill her with kindness.
well, kell, you are too kind to us :O)
CONGRATULATIONS!!! There aren't enough adjectives to describe her incredible beauty and radiance!!! She certainly "shines" as a Brug beacon!!
PLEASE, Please, please add me to your ever growing list of adoring Brug fans, who are trying to wait, as patiently as, so we possibly may have cuttings and/or seeds from this magnificent Brug!!! I'm in total AWE!!!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~drooling.. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~more drool..~ ~~~~~~~~$@#%%$@$%$!@@$@ oopsss short circuited my keyb#$d
I'm going to save my pennies for this one and the one Susie is growing, because it sounds doubly delicious as well. It's gorgeous Kell and Susie.
LOL, That list is gonna be Huge by the time this is grown for 2 seasons.
LOLOL I feel like I need to post everytime I come look. Kell I DO love this one, but I love even more that you and Susie got something YOU have wanted forever. And its in YOUR backyard! I have read WAY far back Kell, and you have always been a pink girl.
LOLOL, MzMunchken.....
I thought about my keyboard while I was drooling and kept it in....Problem then was that it shorted out my brain... :)~
Kell...NO DON'T DO IT !!!! I have killed too many plants with kindness!!! More than with neglect !!! :'(
Margie
OUTSTANDING!!!!!
I hope Susie is trying for a double red. That would be the only thing to top this one.
I think she HAS a DOUBLE DARK PINK or a DOUBLE RED!!?!!
I got a suggestion for a name?.......Call it "Pinnacle" The top!
Cause it looks like the top to me for the USA people. :-)
Just a suggestion.
Good one Kyle!
I like that name too. Gosh, this one has to have just the right name. What a brug!!
I agree. It needs a fabulous name for a beautiful Brug.
Well if its a beautiful name you want?..Call it Kyle..I'm beautiful..in my own mind anyway!!!LOL :-)
I like that Kyle!
LOL, Kyle
And modest too, I see.... :)~
me one the list begging.
JUST WOW!!!!!!! very beautiful. congrats to you both.
LOL ((Singing*)) "I GOTTA BE MEEEEEEE! I GOTTA BE MEEEEEE!" LOL LOL :-)
Gorgeous Kell!!!
Between a family emergency and a graduation, i've been a bit occupied.
Now, if we could just see what calla is holding back on us, lol.
Jen
Donna, sorry you wasted a day on my account.
WOW kell, I am so happy for you and Susie!!! What a wonderful flower that is indeed. Looks like the list is going to be very long for this brug and I can sure see why. I would love one of these someday.
**** Lani, happy dancing around my ponds just for Kell and Susie****
I can hardly wait till Susie shows us what is up HER sleeve!!!!! Don't make us wait too long of I will have to do a roadtrip. The gator won't bother me because I have a gun and know how to use it. LOL
Lani
Kyle, I think Kyle is a beautiful name but not to put the men folk out but this one needs a more femine name. LOL
Deb, empty your email. Bounced mail since yesterday morning.
Sorry Kell, I didn't know how else to get a message to her. LOL!
I think the name needs to include kell or Susie's name in it, or both.
Kell,
Before you die and go to Heaven take plenty of cuttings and get them started for us all.
That's a great flower. I knew it wouldn't be long before we got our first red one here in the states. That double pink must be coming in next.I think I have that seedling growing in my yard. (yeah right don't I wish)!!!
Are you going to consult with Susie and the two of you select a name or will you do a name that brug game like some have done on here before?
How about:
1.Kell's Show stopper
2.Cherries Jubilee
3.REDRUM (from The Shining) spell that backwards and see what you get.
Oh Kell, for once I am speechless.....OMG that is one beautiful brug. Yep you can put me on that endless list for cuttings to....
Congratulations..... :o)
Dee
Beautifuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuul. Put me on that list also.
....per kells post on 6/19...."on an on with all of you on this thread." I see that I have been included too!! Thank you so much kell !!!
