She is a nice large ruffled white,I have been just watching this thing get big,it is the bud in the crotch of the Y,they never seem to bloom for me,so another first.

Rock Hill, SC(Zone 8a)

rootdoctor, that is the biggest bud that I have ever seen. I hope you don't wait all weekend for at least one of those buds to open, lol.

Adrian, MI(Zone 5b)

I think there should be a catagory for largest bud each year!
This would certainly be "A Contender" if not the winner! I can't wait to see the bloom!

YES, a category for the largest bud, and the smallest to bloom or maybe the smallest brug with a bloom. That sounds fun!!!!!

Harrisville, MI(Zone 5b)

Smallest Brug,I can go that way too,I am hoping to get these two to bloom in this McCoy,I have LA in back and Arborea up front.

Shut. Up. Snort, backwards sneeze, I almost lost my breath, LOL!! The McCoy is to die for!!! Are there buds I cannot see??

Harrisville, MI(Zone 5b)

No,they are rooted cuttings,they have been in there for a month,my wife got the McCoy at an auction,I collect them.

SE Arky, United States(Zone 8a)

Well, Root, I'll be on the lookout for you. I have 'a' McCoy, also a vase, it is a lovely brown, a true, real brown, not something you see now days, and 'cream', it's lovely. I've never had anyone look at it, but it is marked. It was my mother's and I treasure it, and I LOVE your vase, and the color sets me on fire, I'm nutz for color...your wife has EXCELLENT taste...

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)

I think Root that you have too many L'Amours laying around!

Root, great shot. Maybe the bud, Bud, will explode on the 4th for you. Should be a beauty. Donna

I know guys say 'size doesn't matter' but how big is it? Have you measured the flower?

Gosh what do you do with that Brug in the winter? It's so big.

You must be feeding it something.....Hum,
