One of many putting on a final show for me this week. I really love this brug! Didn't start blooming until the middle of September, but has been non-stop since then. Here are some shots from the past week:

That is a very nice photo gallery - you show the blooms at all different stages. Do you like the fragrance - mine smell great but only after dark when they open up fully. JP has been a very reliable bloomer for me all summer. Even between flushes there are usually a few blooms going. I have lots of mystery pods on mine too, courtesy of the bees and moths.
Great pictures Gretchen. I'm so glad you are still having lots of blooms. I see the bees are still at work too. LOL!
Very nice pics of JP, Gretchen. She bloomed for me starting in early Sept, but didn't ever put on much of a show. Just a few blooms here and there. Of course, she's been moved inside now and is loaded with buds. LOL
Great collage!
Nice pics. This is one of my favorites.
Thanks to you all! This one is definitely a "late bloomer?" LOL! I Kept thinking all summer that it was going to end up being deep sixed this fall, but finally, it loaded with buds and blooms, and lovely big leaves. And it smells divine!
Tom -- good luck on your seeds! All my brugs really only emit their scent in the late afternoon to early morning hours.
Brinda -- I hope your buds hang on and you're blessed with lots of beautiful blooms!
Brugie -- Almost every brug I have is blooming. All are loaded except Isabella (they all pretty much finished last week). Too bad this is the end for them :(
Shirley and Gloria -- thank you both!!!
I hope everyone has a great day!!!!!!!!!
Gretchen Thats a great collage of JP. I hope to learn how to do that type of multiple photos in my didital camera class this month. You do such a good job and they are very nice photos. Donna
Donna -- thank you! You are so sweet! Its really very easy with the program I have: Microsoft Digital Image Pro. I did this on via drag and drop. Enjoy your class! It sounds like a great way to spend the dreary winter months :) Gretchen
Oh my goodness, very beautiful pictures.
A beautiful collage, Gretchen, and a very pretty brug!!!!!
Is that the same program you do your writing on your Happy Birthday threads? I am on the hunt for some new programs to ask for from Santa!
I love your gallery and your brug!
Could you tell me again about your heater? I may get it for my hoophouse. Do you love it?
Gretchen, is that program anything like PSP?
Thank you all! This is the program I use for photo editing, collages, etc:

This is the program I use for watermarks and birthday greetings:

And Kell, here is my heater -- and yes, I love it! Its a thermostatically controlled Honeywell electric radiator, and I usually put it on 70 when the temp drops. Costs me about $30 a month to run it in the coldest part of winter. Please excuse the mess -- I dusted everything with bug powder this afternoon...
Kareoke -- I have no idea, as I haven't used PSP.
PS -- I use a wireless thermometer with a transmitter in the GH so I can constantly monitor the temp (my GH is quite a ways from the house). I also have a transmitter outside, and it gives the indoor temp too.
