CC loved your pictures. And it does look windy in the 3rd photo. Looks like that here almost every afternoon, but not today. It is hot was 85 now down to 77 and no wind for once. Your brug tree look just great. Donna
Its great to see some color in your neck of the woods Karyn!
Whatcha got growin thar on the left of Maya??
Ya know,I should take some shots of my NY nanas.....
here's my new babies
They are Black Neck Swans...or cygnets (baby swans)
they were shipped here from Ohio
and I love them
they're a lot bigger now,this picture is when they were 6 weeks.....they are starting to loose their furry feathers and get the juvinile feathers,they won't get their adult feathers till they're a year old
Too Cool!!!!!
That there is Tabaccy for the long winters LOL!!
Next to the maya is some Hibiscus that I wintered over from last year.....
I just asked Chuck today if the one looked like pot....LOL
He said the leaves are too fat
Not sure which hibiscus they are..I just quick scooped them out before frost,potted them and then they started to die
I cut them back and left them in a corner of the GH for the winter and when I yanked everything out they were sending up new shoots from the roots
I'm going to leave them in pots this year...
I just want them to bloom......
here's my blue potato bush......
I can't do wacky tabbacy
I'd loose my CDL...
We get tested constantly
What's CDL crestedchik?
It is Hibiscus Cannibus,Swamp Mallow,I just started some.
LOLOL Rooty. I was kidding Karyn, it did look like that tho. I LOVE those baby swans! How neat! I sware I want a chicken egg to hatch. LOL DH thinks Im nuts. The potato bush is beautiful.
CDL is Commercial Drivers License
I drive tractor trailer......
and the DOT(department of transportation) and UPS frown upon drug and alcohol use...LOL
Hey I have chickens hatching right now
Root,there are 2 different hibiscus in that pot
The one with the goofy leaves and some that are maple leaf looking
Great pictures. I like the babies too. That poor brug was really swaying in the breeze, wasn't it. I hate wind.
The little swans are so cute. Looks like you're getting winds like we do here in TX! Your flowers look great!
CC, those babies are so cute I cannot stand it!!!!!! Good luck, I have 6 baby wrens, right above my front entry, and we are counting the days for them to fly, we are oh so scared the cats will win, whew, we have been lucky so far, the babies are oh so precious!!!!
Great pictures, CC. The swans are so cute.
forgot versi peach.......
the unopen blooms at the bottom are hanging off EP....not open yet...waiting patiently....NOT
also have buds on Butterfly and PB...but PB got blown over today and knocked a good size branch with most of the blooms off today...trying to root but I still struggle with green cuttings......
WTG CC ... I want a bloom so bad. I love swans. We did have one show up here this year about 3 different times, they are so graceful.
CC, your brugs are wonderful, I love the wind shot!!!! But, I REALLY love those baby swans, they are adorable, such fuzzy wuzzies, too cute!!!! I'm a bird person too and we are 'raising' 6 baby wrens, whose mom and pop built their next in a hanging basket pot. It hasn't been easy, with the cat population watching every move, but they are close to being able to fly. Cross your fingers!!!!!!
Wow CC you have blooms galore! Everything is beautiful and the little swans are precious. I am extremely fond of Charles Grimaldi and I love the look of yours.
CC, your pictures are very nice! I hope, CG was not blown away by the wind. I also hate wind. We have too much of it! I like the Baby Swans.
CC, how is it you're in NY and have bruggies blooming already? Were these mature plants that brought in for the winter?
Yes ,they are mature plants
The CG was my first Brug from about 5 years ago(maybe more)
As I added more brugs(and more tropicals) my house became very over crowded in the winter and I kept getting more.....I don't have a basement so they had to go infront of the windows and sliding doors,as our summers are very short they spent more time in the house than outside
Chuck finally got me a GH 2 years ago......
but I've out grown it and need a bigger one...LOL
Wow CC...I've been away all week! BEAUTIFUL!
CC everything looks beautiful. So many brugs and other pretty flowers blooming. Your new babies are precious and you must keep us updated on their growth.
Holy smokes, Karyn!!!!
Love 'em all..and the swans are just darlings... :)
If ya get a chance, could you post a pic or two of your peacocks??? I always loved them but until we move to the country, I guess I'll have to wait. I hear they're screamers and I wouldn't want to change my neighbors into ones....lol
No wonder it looks something like Wacky Weed with the word Cannubis (cannabis) in its name. How come Chuck knows the difference, lol?
I wonder if I will ever have a bruggie full of bloom instead of just a few as I am having to take cuttings every year.
CC.. all your plants are doing great!!! and I love the little swans... please take pictures of them once they have devloped their adult plummage..
