Your driveway must look so sunny with all these yellow suavs. So pretty!
Thank you all! And, yes, it smells good - like a brug... And, the driveway is looking good except for the three holes where I had to remove the ones I lost to rot. Just wish there was a pink in the bunch... There are still a few that haven't bloomed, so here's hoping :)
I love it Gretchen! Those are some pretty shades of yellow, and a nice change from all the pinks, I think!
Beautiful Gretchen!!! I really like the color.....
Great bloom, great color, does the plant have other buds?
Beautiful bloom, Gretchen. I love the color.
Thank you all! No, this is the lone bloom and no more buds that I can find at the moment. I sure hope so soon. This is the next best thing to pink! Here she is tonight. I sure hope her future blooms are as pretty as this one!!!
Very nice!
Thank you! I'm loving this one!!!
Me too! I'm partial to yellows and whites anyway. :-)
What are the great looking little Orange blooms above,behind the ruler pic?
Very pretty Gretchen. Congrats to you and the hybridizer.
Good job Gretchen and JT! I really like this one. It will be interesting to see how many of the flowers are 7-pointers. At least we know it has the potential!
Gold Traum did it for me.

Thank you all!!! Toot, your Goldtraum is gorgeous, and the orange flowers are Cosmos "Lady Bird Johnson" which is a dwarf variety. I have man varieties of cosmos in my garden, and this is an unbeatable cultivar. Non-stop blooms all summer long, and it gets to a max of around 18', so its a nice one to use as bedding under the brugs.
That one is really cool looking Gretchen. Can I please get on a list for a fall cutting if she is big enough???
Very pretty. It almost looks lacey at the bottom and and I like the shade of yellow. I think we need more pretty yellows one that don't turn gold or orange as they age.
That is very beautiful, Gretchen. I would like to be on the cutting list also. Besides the red that Kell has I think this is the one I would choose next.
Thanks to you all! She may not end up being big enough this year for cuttings, and I have to have J.T.'s approval to share her... Please remind me as we get closer to old weather......
And, Franny her color only improved with age. She's a really gorgeous shade of yellow!
Gretchen this is your brug to do with as you like.You did the hard work.Share away.I wouldn't mind getting on the list for a cutting of this one if the 7 points hold on the next flush.
Gretchen, It is absolutely gorgeous. Love that lemony yellow color. So far in seedlings I have only white, but there are a lot of my seedlings that haven't Y'd. Hopefully something interesting will develop. I sure can't even carry a whole lot over winter even as cuttings. Donna
Thanks J.T.! You are first on the list, of course!
Donna: Thank you! These two IGXEG and one Whiskers X ? are the only seedlings I've had with color. All my others have bloomed white, but I have about six left that haven't bloomed. Fingers are crossed!!!
My 'Jean Pasco' that I got from DonnaB last fall ru had a couple of seven pointers much to my surprise.
Looking great Gretchen :)
Gretchen,whatever happened to this plant?Did you decide to keep and name it and did the 7 points hold?I still think it's a beauty.
JT, I have not seen her here in a long time.
I haven't talked to Gretchen in some time, but when I did, she had started working. She said that David had decided that he enjoyed the computer, so she didn't get much time to use it. LOL!
The computer bit I fully understand.We had to get a second one.
You don't think Maggi would let me use her computer.
Love her curves. Congrats Kaufmann!
I REALLY love it! It's pretty and spunky!
LOL at the computer talk. My Christmas bonus came in at double it usually is, so I am thinking of buying myself a laptop for the very reasons above. I'm on the computer most of the time and I've always told Fred that I know I hog it, so if he needs it to just let me know and I'll get off so he can use it. He nevers (or very, very rarely asks), yet he complains regularly about how he never gets to use it. lol.
Ya, I've wondered about Gretchen (Kaufman). She used to post regularly and usually with interesting posts. Then she just disappeared. Hope all is well with her.
