How pretty
Yes, she is a beauty! My wish list just keeps getting longer and longer..........
Hard to beat Susanne. WOW Root!
Wow, nice plant. So how come yours got so tall and mine Y'ed so short???
Susanne is a great plant. Can't wait for mine to bloom again this year.
Beautiful pic Root
what a lovely color, we will be in the 80s this week so plan on planting some of mine in the garden, can't wait to get more than one bloom on a plant :)
Beautiful bloom, Root.
Nice picture Root!
My Susanne has buds.
You have blooms! I'm so jealous. It's beautiful :)
Thanks all,Susie,she is not tall at all,she got wide in the sunroom this winter,I am going to let her quit blooming and trim her back to a good shape.
Root, I think I recall you posting that you grow some of your brugs in sun and others in shade. If I was correct about what I thought you said, are you finding that the ones in shade bud, bloom as quickly and as much as the ones in the sun - and, do your brugs in the sun 'melt' when it's really hot?? Last question - which do you prefer sun or shade?? Mine in morning sun do great, but I'm running out of morning beds, close enough for me to tend the plants all summer. Your Susanne is beautiful, I hope I don't kill mine!!!
I like morning sun on mine,my neighbor took down a tree this spring,so I have a shade bed to move,and the deck is going to sizzle this summer.
Its just beautiful!
Gorgeous, Root! Luv the elephant ear type plant near it.

A real beauty root!
Could you say more on 'trimming the plant back for a better shape'....I have some that look just like yours and would like to know!
Thanks, Margie
Very pretty. I am going to have to have that one.
Nothing major,just going to cut it back closer to the center.Take the long leggy branches off.
Thank you root...that is what I thought you might have meant...I will have to look at mine and maybe do that too!
such beautiful blooms....
Even as a bud she is a girlie girl. Look at her curves.
Beautiful Root. . . glad you are getting blooms. Susanne is one of my favorites and it really gets dark for me even in cooler weather. I am anxious to see how it does this summer.
Monika, I am anxious to see how it blooms for you and the color.
Susanne is one of the best ones that I have, Susie and Tracey did good. This was back in March.
Look at her now, she has developed the nicest, lush canopy.
WOW, that is absolutely beautiful!!!
Very pretty, Mary. Susanne does very well for me too. I'm anxious to see what her seeds produce now.
Mary - that's gorgeous and in March?
cold, wet, windy and rainy is the March weather.... which we're having NOW!
Here she is tonight, picture doesn't do it justice
Beautiful picture and plant. Susanne is gorgeous and one of my favorites.
It is my all time favorite, so far.
wow that lady is some looker. Hey my name is Sue - I think I need her at my place. Does anyone have any cuttings to spare??? (begging actually...)
Gorgeous plant Mary. Susanne is one of my favorites.
Very pretty, Root. I don't have this one YET, but I think it is one ofthe prettiest I've seen. Congrats to her hybridizers - you done well!
I keep telling myself...No more brugs..and than along comes something like this and my good intensions go out the window...I want this one,,love the form and color.
