Wildwood, FL(Zone 9a)

So true Snow. I took a brug to work for someone and one of my coworkers told me she thought it was growing since I brought it in that morning! I told her it very well may be!

RICHMOND, VA(Zone 7b)

Love your threads and style, Snowher -

Chariton, IA(Zone 5b)

Oh wow, to have blooms like that right now would make me one very happy camper. Great pictures Terry. Your brugs are beautiful.

Greensburg, IN(Zone 6a)

lovely brugs wish mine would start doing something, they haven't grown much in the last month

SE Arky, United States(Zone 8a)

Really lovely, Terry!! Your GH is wonderful and your brugs really set it off!!! There is no doubt that you are NOT one that sits around munching sweets from a bon-bon-niere! I'm most impressed with your GH and your brugs!!

Woodsville, NH(Zone 4a)

Thanks everyone. These poor plants didn't have the best conditions to overwinter in. I have no basement so they had to sit on a hot dry sunporch heated with a woodstove all winter.
They tolerated it but they sure were happy when I put them in the GH in Feb.
Don't care for bon bons Sherry but put a box of chocolate covered cherries with liquid centers in front of me and I can do some munching. LOL

Tulsa, OK(Zone 6b)

Give me chocolate covered nuts and I'm a happy camper! Your brugs look wonderful, Terry, how much longer before they can go outside?

SE Arky, United States(Zone 8a)

Lol, I love the chocolate covered cherries with the brandy liquor, ooooooh, to die for and, oooooh so costly!!! I'm not even nutz about chocolate, but there is some too good to pass up...

Woodsville, NH(Zone 4a)

Ronna they can go out the last week of May or first week of June depending on the weather.
Now I'm sitting here dreaming of chocolate covered cherries. :)

Denver, CO(Zone 5b)

Brugs looks beautiful. I will be glad to see mine looking like that. I am new at this but taking good care of my babies. I am just going to have to find a way to get me a GH before the winter. We really have some high winds here in Corapeake so it would have to be really sturdy.
And speaking of chocolate cherries they are my favorite. If I had a box would probably eat the whole box without stopping. I remember one Xmas Roadrunner and I made a slew of those things. They were better than the store bought ones.

Chocolate covered cherries with Brandy Liquor???
I don't believe I've ever seen those kind up here. Probably a good thing too. LOL
Sami homemade are great. My DD makes them at Christmas time and they don't last long.
Hmm, wish I knew Roadrunner made them. I would have hit her up for some when she came to visit a couple of yrs ago. ;)

We had molds to make them back then but don't think she has them anymore. It was a lot of fun though. I miss now living close to her anymore. We really had some good times.

Terry, there are Chocolate Covered Cherries soaked in Brandy and Chocolate Covered Cherries with Liquor and Chocolate Covered Cherry Cordials. There are probably tons more that I don't know about too - actually I've never had a cho covered cherry that I didn't like, even the 99 cent ones from Fred's. My fav is chocolate covered apricots...

Not only are Terry's brugs making me drool but when you mentioned Choc. covered Cherries..OMG I love those. I had to share this with you since we were talking chocolate. I got these in Finland last year and were a hit here. These are chocolate filled with Finlandia Vodka. I was told they are quite the combination.

I think I'll hop the next bus to Finland!!! That sounds like heaven, Kin!! Vodka and chocolate, I could put on some weight (as if??!!) and feel good about doing it...

Harlem, GA(Zone 8a)

lol Sherry! me too!!!

Kin, Yummy!

Woodsville, NH(Zone 4a)

Well you all have made me feel chocolate covered cherry deprived. We have the cream centers and the liquid centers up here but I've never seen the ones with the Brandy and liquor.
I'll have to go on a CCC hunt next time we go to the city which is about 90 miles away.
