I've been teasing perennialgirl about finally getting a Brug to flower from a first year cutting.
As this is my first year growing them it is I guess a first year/first year flower.
Tonight it decided to open.
It is I'm pretty sure 'Dr Seuss' (OK I cheated...saw Chele's last weekend! lol)
So Donna......here's the Doctor and WOW is it fragrant!

Looking pretty good, Ric. And so are your tomatoes.
Lets see if your brug gets sick from your tomatoes though. I can't remember what virus might be passed.
kell.
Thanks!
and Thanks for the warning.
I've been told it's heirloom tomatos that put them at most risk.
These are Sweet Hundreds and are virus resistant.
Course I was told this AFTER I started the Brugs. lol
But on the American Brug Society virus page here's the host listing.
Common plant host for Tobacco Mosaic
African Violet, Tomato, Pepper, Petunia, Snapdragon, Delphinium, Marigold, Cucumber, Squash, Spinach, Celosia, Impatiens, Phlox, Zinnia, Aster, Banana, Chrysanthemum, Geranium, Gladiola, Grapes, Kalanchoe, Roses, Potato, Datura and more.
Tomato Spotted Wilt
Sweet pea, Cucumber, Melon, Pepper, Tomato, Chrysanthemum, Cyclamen, Gypsophila, Lily, Lisianthus, Stocks, Anemone, Aster, Datura, Begonia, Foxglove, Nasturtium, Poppy, Sunflower, Viola and many more.
Somehow I'm doubting that Brug growers don't grow any of these or smoke.
I personally know several who grow 'and many mores' ;-)
