I know that this is not technically the correct forum to post this in but, this the place to look for her.
I received this brug from LBJ (Le Bon Jardinier) several years ago. Long story short, my mother plant came down with SB last year, and had to be destroyed. The only other person that I knew that had her, (from a previous trade when I shared Bebe with them a couple of years ago), gave me back her main plant and keep a cutting for herself. Needless to say both of us lost our plants over the winter, but not from SB.
Anyway, I am DESPERATE to find a replacement of her. The person who bred her, no longer has this cultivar either :( She is not a spectacular brug compared to the newer hybrids, but she hold's a very special place in my heart. There are two things that will help identify her, first she has very short pig-tailed tendrils and the corolla has notches around it somewhat like Arborea.
Here is a picture of her and a link to a couple more pics that will help identify her.

Please, if anyone has or knows of anyone that has her, PLEASE let me know. I am willing to offer a special brug in exchange for her. But I must know that it is the real Bebe.
Thanks so much.
"All Points Bulletin" Looking for Brugmansia 'Bebe'
David, the Bebe you gave me is growing well. I've got three shoots on her 4' or so long. I'm happy to send some of her back to you.
OH Carter,
You know that I had forgot that I sent you Bebe when I sent you the orange one to trial for me!!! I don't have any records dating back past 12/4/2004, that is when I got my new computer due to the old one kicking the bucket.
Yes, yes, I would love to have a big new start of her, but only when you think that it would be safe to send. If it is not cold weather keeping us from shipping, it is the blazing heat.
Have you got to see her bloom yet?
I'll email mail you for details.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! :)
You're very welcome. No flowers yet, but she's growing really well, so hopefully I'll see some before long. I've been checking her about each week looking for the signs of a 'Y'. She's one I'm (not so) patiently waiting to see flowers of!
The orange is growing well. Again, no flowers yet, but it's looking healthy and I hope to see a 'Y' soon.
