This is my second year with this brug..it bloomed a few flowers last year but this year it is huge....Judy
My Maya is blooming
Judy, That is so pretty! I have a Snowbank that has never grown much & no blooms at all. Beautiful plant! Melba
I like how it doesn't become a monster, lush foliage and the blooms just keep coming! Nice one, juttz! Mine bloomed in the basement in January and again in May and June and July and August.... (I think it's my favorite!.....maybe)
Here is my Maya to the left and Peaches and Cream to the right, the one in the middle is an unknown. They both bloomed early in the spring, but haven't seen anything on them lately, waiting for the weather to cool down. The maya and P&C are both from last year, my mother plants.
AuntB both of mine have become monsters, as you would put it. I think next year I will keep them trimmed up like a tree instead of a bush. But I don't know I kinda like the bushy look.
My variegated brugs. are the only pretty ones just in leaf that I have. The others look like Mother Nature forgot something. But when they bloom, all is right in the garden.

wonderful great pictures pretty yard
2pug- those are drop dead gorgeous. I have a Snowbank, but it is the sickliest thing I've seen. I keep threatening to pitch it but I just can't. Do you bring yours inside in the winter?
oh my, how gorgeous
Thanks everybody....I have a snowbank too and each year I swear Im going to get rid of it..it gets leaves, the leaves start to yellow and fall off...Ive talked to alot of people and they say its the worse variegated brug they ahve every known....my peaches and cream isnt doing much at all but it started to died down the stalk from winter and I was afraid it wouldnt live..its now got a sucker coming up the side and thats all thats alive..I cant get P and C to grow worth a carn in my yard either..its a very slow variegated...now if only I could get a Jamie...lolol...Judy
Judy your Maya looks great. I just love the fragrance of Maya. I parked mine right outside my back door where I travel out and in all day long. Mine is blooming now but doesn't look so great from the weather this past week. DH has his little chuckles at my gardening but I see the way he sticks his nose up Maya skirt to get a wiff of her scent.

Dott, mine is right along the front of the deck where I take a look at it all day from the top and then go down below and check it looking up..lolol..its about 7 feet tall and I adore it..we are so blessed to have beautiful plants all around us....Judy
I think right now Maya and P&C will go in the GH this winter. Not for sure what else will. I got a snowbank last summer and mine has done the same as Juttz's has. The only difference in it from last year is it has grown about 2 inches. I don't think it will be in the GH this winter.
I heard that they unveiled Snowbanks too quick before it was tested and not alot of people are having any good luck with them.....Im hoping this fall somebody will trade me a snip off their Jamie and I can see how that grows up here in Michigan....Judy
I have been seeing wants for the Jamie here and on another garden web site. Good luck I hope you get one, if you do please post what your findings are.

Judy, your Maya is so pretty! I so enjoy the variegated more than the green ones. I love variegated plants as a rule. They can be so entertaining even without flowers.
I wonder if Snowbank likes cooler weather. Here they do quite well. I was a garden party and they had a Snowbank that was a huge tree with a huge canopy. Very happy!
Linda, yours look happy too! Mine are so unhappy so it is great to see pretty plants!
