I just finished planting outside several potted cuttings from last fall, and one 9 inch Rosamond has seven buds - four good sized.
I'll get a picture when and if they bloom.
I have 9 more potted plants to share with the first three people to reply who will promise TLC for them. Several Vers Orange and Rosamond,one EP, and one Adora.
Rosamond puts out
Way to go!
I will send you an email.
Thanks,
Jackie
I'm holding my hand UP!!!! Please.
Judy
Waving my hands in the sky!!! Please :0)

Boy that didn't take long.
Congrats on all the winners. Hands up.
Don't forget to show us that 9 inch brug with all those blooms. LOL. Rosamond blooms are huge, they may be bigger than the plant itself!!
If you have several versi orange, can you spare another one for me?
will get a picture today - even in the rain.
Not blooming yet, 'tho.
Yep Rosamond is a great bloomer with huge blooms and wonderful smell
Donna B - glad you are getting around enough to sniff your Brugs!
Sometimes I just inhale them.
My package arrived today. Thank you so very much.
Judy
Mine did too Polly! Thank you so very much too! Already in their new home :-) Let ya see when they perk up a bit. They are all so healthy.
Hugs
Julie
Polly, you are a doll...I thank you from the bottom of my heart!
They look great, and I am very excited!
Just wonderful.
Everytime I see your title on the brug page, Polly, ` I have to laugh.
My little Rosamond is still holding onto her buds - she may even have grown an inch. Here is how she is looking today.
Rosamond looks great Polly. I love your name, it's so cheerful :-) Whatever you're doing she absolutely loves it!
Hugs
Julie
Here's tiny little 9 in Rosamond bending from her burden of blossoms early this am after a rain:
OH WOW!!!! Polly way to go!!! I bet you set some kind of record, or if you didn't people should be impressed anyway!!
Proud for you.

Now that is so cute. LOL.
so small for blooms oh i hope i can to.. shes lovely... Twyla
That's too cool Polly... Smart plant too - I notice she put out 3 nicely spaced which balanced out. How does Rosamond smell?
I'll do a special sniffing test tonight; my Sat nite "high" on the patio. EP, Pink Beauty, Rosa Traum, Adora and Rosamond are all blooming; this may lead to a ballet!
The whole patio is providing Nocturne; I'll be the sugar plum fairy!
Polly,
I have never seen the Rosa Traum and there isn't a picture in the Plant Files, could you please post a picture?
Judy
Rosa Traum is on the right; I'll take a close up of her tomorrow morning.
(or maybe a night shot) !
Adora is the picture above

Here's a closeup of Adora -kissed delicately with pink.
Most of my pots are in the hot sun, so my blossoms only last several days.
I will rearrange their locations.
This was yestrday's picture of Vers orange; today the blooms have wilted
Those V orange blooms look yummy and Adora so sweet, both are so refreshing.
Judy
firstly - can I please come over and hang out? I'll even b.m.o.b!
2ndly - don't I see a curvy statue on the patio? you're going to post a pic aren't you?
3rdly - variegated hydrangea went in the mail Sat. Rootball is double bagged.
What a treat to look forward to, 8 ft!
I have huge varigated Daphne shrubs that I consider a top all around plant - it blooms with a scent that knocks your beer out of your hand from Feb til April, and the foliage is spendid. Will it survive in Iowa ?
If so, I'll send you cuttings; they will need your tlc to root.
Here are three single blooms of three lovely pinks (taken this am) for you all to compare and consider:
First, Rosamond:
Rosa Traum:
and Pink Beauty - the biggest, hardiest and best ? (so sez I):
Oh, I've drooled over daphne so many times but if not mistaken, they need acidic soil which means she probably won't be happy hear. But I'll try anything once or twice or so... Yeah, I can amend the soil and adjust the ph but with our hard water here, it'll revert back without a lot of effort. However I did finally make an azalea happy, so who knows. One of the thing that's helped that azalea, I think, is the amount of pine needles I've shredded and piled around her.
Azaleas love love love lime!
LIME! Are you sure???
