These are the first blooms on Brug. 'Daydream' , and my first dbl.pink brug. I want to thank the very kind, generous trader that shared her with me.
I think I must be in Heaven !!
another view
and last
Congratulations on the bloom! I cant believe how big it looks, just wonderful!
Beautiful! How's the scent?
How fun! I'm sharing in your joy because a nice group of
traders are sending or have sent me young Brugs, too!
They are sitting on our pond walk so I can watch them each
and every day from my office window. I'm so excited, I keep
looking, looking, even though I know they aren't going to bloom
soon. I have to be patient, but it's so hard!
Your pictures are wonderful!
Oh how beautiful congrats!!! I killed my cutting over winter, but it sure is nice to see blooms, you did very well with it!
Oh Patricia, what a BEAUTY! Well done! :~)
I've got that one, and can't wait to see it bloom! All my babies are going through a long awaited growth spurt that makes me hope I'll see some nice results this year. All winter long things were stagnant. Thank Goodness it's really spring!!

Patricia, she is beautiful. I've never seen a double pink till now. Congrats!
azreno, after you asked, I ran out to see if she smelled good. Well there was a slight scent but not as much as alot of my other brugs. Our weather has been cool, so I won't know for sure until it is warm outside again.
Oh Patricia, she is beautiful.Lucky you.....another for my wish list
Elva
BEAU-TI-FUL!!! Thanks a lot for adding yet another plant i must have. will it ever end??
I love it!! Fab.!!!
Bonnie
She looks great Patricia. Just wait until you have some triple blooms. You will fall in love all over again.
Congratulations, she is outstanding!!! Very elegant bloom, and the color suits her perfectly. I am so happy for you!
Patricia, you have some beautiful blooms, I will be go glad to see blooms here. I did find 4 buds on a unnamed brugs yesterday.
I was beginning to think we weren't going to have a Spring , but finally the sun arrived and along with it some blooms. I have many more brugs. that haven't even set buds or y'd yet.
Beautiful!!!
Just starting to set buds here. I counted almost a dozen with new buds this morning.
Beautiful and big. You are so fortunate to have this growing in your yard and it must be spectacular in person. You did a great job of bringing it through the winter.
Oh YUMMY!! Congratulations! That is just tooooo cool. Oh man.. I'd be weak in the knees if that was mine!
I am so happy for you. Thank you for sharing such awesome pics!
Thank you all, but most of all the wonderful person that shared this brug. with me.
So pretty Patrica. Monika is blooming for me now and looks so much like this one. You will love that one also! I should have taken a picture of them side by side.
Kell, I would love to see a picture of your B. monika. Mine is growing very slowly.
Here it is. The calyx is much more slender than Daydreams it appears. It has some calyx problems that I am hoping will resolve with time. I see your Daydreams does too. Maybe it is due to the time of the year and the first blooms. Too bad my other has stopped blooming.
Very Pretty Kell, please keep us on what happens with this one.
My Day Dreams didn't have calyx problems at all.
Shirley, It is still pretty low to the ground, so isn't getting the best light and up until a few day's ago, we were still only in the 70's. It will probably look much better when we get warmer which is suppose to be by the end of the week.
Then we should be up in the 90's.
Everytime I look at it, it reminds me of the first Petticoat I got when I was a kid.
Patricia
The side view of Monika doesn't appear that she has a bad problem if she even has a problem at all. I didn't see her bloom last year due to health issues.
I'm sure she will do well for you Patricia. I have buds on my plants now and we are having some nice, warm weather. I'm really looking forward to seeing my newest seedlings bloom. I'm just glad you have blooms on your Day Dreams. She has certainly made some people a lot of money on eBay, so she can't be all bad.
Shirley, I sure can't see anything bad about her. She is truly a brug. daydream.
I have a couple other Dbl. pinks that I am looking forward to seeing blooms on also. I even have one seedling that I grew out last year that I am hoping to see a bloom on this year. It bloomed out very late in the season and looking like it would be a dbl. pink.
Good for you. I have a friend who grew out a few of my own cross seeds and she has a double pink from one of them. I anxious to see it bloom for her again this year. I think I'm getting sick of double pinks now tho. I would love to see double yellow or orange, not peach. Anything different. Good luck with your seedling. I hope for you that it is a gorgeous double or even triple pink.
I know what you mean, I would love to have a double or triple yellow. I am trying to cross my B. Gemini with Dr. Suess, but for some reason my crosses don't want to take. But I will keep trying. I would love some of the shorter growing brugs. in different colors.
Patricia
Sick? Sick of double pinks? LOL Shirley, do you have my address?
All kidding aside, they are gorgeous! Surely Kell, as the weather warms for you the calyx prolbems will change. But no matter, they are beautiful!
Shirley, you must be joking. Right? I'm sure praying that the one I have that I think is Day Dreams blooms soon, so that I know for sure. A very nice, generous lady here on Dave's sent me one last year, but the name tag got lost, so I have my fingers, toes and eyes crossed waiting to see. I lost several brugs over the winter, and am anxiously waiting and praying that Day Dreams was not one of them. Sure hope this nice lady's health is much better this summer, and she can get back to growing those beautiful plants. Love ya, S.M.
I don't think I could ever get tired of a double pink!!! But I for one would sure love to try! LOL!!
I hope, Monika will bloom for me this year. This is Day Dream, blooming last fall with a nice flush She had no calyx problems at all but one of the flowers had a skirt with ten tendrils.

Now, that's what I call a beautiful picture. It's so nice to see people posting pictures with lots of blooms and whole plants. Even pictures of brugs in the landscape. I love it. Keep them coming.
OMG is that ever a beautiful flower. I am so jealous. I feel good just having a brug that is blooming. But if I had one of those I would think I had died and gone to haven.
