Gypsy Queen
I got Brugs
On her 2nd flush
My little non-stop Butterfly
Good 'ole S. Pink on her 3rd flush
And this ...
Really, it's name is Angel's Trumpet
Is that the 4 o'clock that I ordered? Mine have tiny blooms and I've only seen one of them bloom. Nice pictures Vi.
Great pictures Vi,give them a sniff for me,I have yet to smell Butterfly,soon I hope!
Beautiful.
I love that last flower
Brugie, yep, that's the 4, disappointing so far with the dime size blooms, but it's gotten really big and is covered with buds, so I'll reserve judgement. I can't even detect a scent yet :( maybe I'll get a warm sunny day and that will change.
Doc, the BF is really strong, perhaps too much with so many blooming. I'm moving it to the far side of the yard--not sure I even like the scent anymore! It sure is pretty tho...
See Vi, I told you that if I had been there for the last swap I might have some of those, lol. Those are really great. All the ones that I have don't have any buds yet. The one that I gave Dad (Isabella) is going crazy with flowers. Hope I can be able to post some flowers one day. Keep the pictures coming.

Fabulous pic Vi.
George, nice to see you! Yes, you really did miss out, it's easier with a rooted and growing brug, I think. I've also found that they do so much better in the ground for me.
Now you know you must start force-feeding your babies, right? At least try Peters twice a week, K?
Awsome Vi. I put all mine in garage this past winter, and they lost all the leaves like dead. But I trimmed them to the bottom and now they are all back out again!! If you leave them out in winter would it better just to cut them down to the grouund in fall and mulch?
Hi Wenny, I'll email you in a couple days, K? I've got company coming, so don't let me forget! Oh, and LMK what brugs you have, some don't overwinter.
Great pictures Vi. I love the scent of Butterfly and I cannot imagine having so many blooms on it that I would have to move it because the smell was too strong. Mine is not very large and I am waiting for the day when I have lots of blooms.
Congratulations Vi! They all look wonderful and bet the night air smells heavenly.
All your Brugs are beautiful!
My "Gypsy Queen" hasn't bloomed yet (sigh). Did yours bloom the 1st or 2nd year you grew it?
Shirley, mine was already rooted and didn't bloom the first time until October, and November it went crazy! I kept it in a pot the first year, in the back bedroom for the winter and just put it in the ground this spring.
Here was it's best flush last year:)
So don't give up!
Mine is very well rooted too and I just potted her into a 5 gallon container. Well....I'm keepin' my fingers crossed that the cooler & milder temps this Fall will bring on her 1st flush of color for me!
