She is more interesting than most because of her different colors displayed in a flush!
Maya is being a show off this week!
So very pretty, look like soft pillows.
Wow Kell,now that is a Flush!!
And she doesn't even have any cats or mites on her yet.
Wow! Beautiful Kell! Did ya just jinx yourself with the bugs?? ;o)
Gosh, your brugs have been just beautiful. I'm still looking at basically GREEN here. I really enjoy your garden pictures.
WOW! Beautiful! This is a flush, I only can dream of.
Kell, did you ever had mites on Maya? Caterpillars love her but I have no problems with the other pests.
Actually NO, Monika! And she is right next (actually touching) an EP that is being killed by cyclamen mites. I have to spray again today.
Cats will eat her till all that is left is the skeleton veins of her leaves.
I was just looking for a pic for David and I came across this tree in May!

Oh kell! This is beautiful! I got some Maya seed from a DG'er, but alas, I lost them. This one I MUST have! Yours is sooo Pretty! Melba
Is Maya any less susceptible to insect damage than other variegated brugs?
Very pretty Kell. You are an inspiration!
I want to come see your Brugs while they are all blooming!
How far from SJ are you?
Bj
Just beautiful Kell.
THAT IS GORGEOUS!
I've lost two plants this winter one was Maya and the other Desiree.... shucks
Ditto on the "THAT IS GORGEOUS!". One of my all-time favorites!
I have a Maya, thanks to Ada. I love it and I don't even have any flowers yet. It's so nice and healthy looking and the variegated leaves are beautiful.
It had some buds, but they all fell off when very small. So small that I was only guessing that they were buds. It looks like there are buds again ................ Your picture sure has me hoping that they are buds and they actually bloom.
Regardless, I will still love this plant even if I don't see one bloom.
Tom, Maya seems to attract caterpillars only. They love her. She must be very tasty lol. I never had aphids, spider- or cyclamen mites bugs or earwigs on Maya.
*speechless* and that's saying a lot for me!!
Great picture. What are you feeding them Kell?
Gorgeous is the best way I know to describe the flush on her. If I were in your yard, I would not know what to look at first because you have so many beautiful plants.
Thanks for the info, Monika. At least the caterpillars are easy to control. Kell, after seeing your picture I've decided I must get Maya! Looks like it produces a huge flush of flowers with better color on a much more vigorous plant than my Snowbank ever was. Hmm... can I fit one more brug in my garage this winter and still have room for the car?
This is my 3rd year for this Maya and my best. I really haven't been feeding it much. I was looking at Brugie's seedlings and ran out this weekend and sprayed everything in my yard with MG! LOL. I did cut this root ball by half and the canopy severely in early spring. I think cutting it back made it branch more and get thicker.
I want mine to get this big
I'd sure love to have this many blooms on any one of my brugs. Awesome brug and your pictures are just great.
Me too Brugie .... me too!!
Thanks Brugie. When I opened Dave's just now and saw this picture I thought God, I have to get that one! Then I saw my name. LOL
It is bloomless now!
I think I have Maya in too much shade. She's not doing so well this summer. How much light does your's get Kell?
Full sun. And she is on the cement (hey CC, I alway shtink of you when I write C-ment) driveway. But still not hot like where you are Susie!
