James, you can edit the first post in this thread and put the list there.. when you edit again.. you can erase the part that says "edited at such and such a time" and then not have a list of edits when you update the list..

easier to find that way.. (and edit)

No I am going to close it now no more votes if it doesn't bloom by the 25th of june something is wrong............lol

June 12, June 12, June 12 ^_^

hate to break it to you oneanjl.. that bloom is not going to wat more than a few days at the most. It is about to start blooming any time. I also noticed I was a dunce and put a date someone else had already guessed... oh well, in colsolation, I don't think it is going to wait that long anyway.

Tammie

WOW James !!

3 days is all I need but it's looking more like 5-6. LOL

Looks like it is going to be soon.

I don't think it will wait until May 31. ^_^

Edited because sentences don't make sense when you leave too many words out!

June 12 ^_^

Go back and look at post #4924747 Mine was May 22.

Anne

Anne, that is what you are listed as picking. You must be looking at the May 8th day. That was the day you chose your May 22 choice.

Charlene

New pic, new pic, new pic!

Not until tomorrow sorry but I already gave you two this past week...............lol

A daily one now that it's getting close would be fun and educational, especially for newbies to brugs

Oh ok I will give you guys a daily picture of it as it is getting close to blooming I am having a lot of fun.

Here it is daily pic 1:

James....
I know I am not going to win..lol but I have to tell you how much fun I have had checking in on your thread... 2..3..4.. or more times a day! And thanks everyone else too.. we are still having fun, even though she getting CLOSE!! I know she will be a beauty, seeing how mant "aunts and uncles" and "grannys and gdads" she has cooing over her!!

Thank you papa!

well my day has come and gone. good luck everyone.

imzadi, you can still get Velvet Rose from daves Market Place.

and where is that ?

OOOOHhhh it's getting close.

Anne

Imzadi... here's a link to DG marketplace :o)
I've already purchased 4 of the brugs for sale on there! :o)

http://davesgarden.com/products/market/index.php

Here it is today as you can see it is starting to open as it has started to split at the tip of the bud I can begin to see the tendrils.

Here it is...

STOP don't open yet.

Open, Open, Open

Weather get cooler, open in 5 days!

Gloria

Gosh, I'm away for a few days and look! lol, Nice of everyone to help out and I appreciate SCNewbie stepping aside... we orignally came from here... http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/843847/

UNofficially, (and at this point) I'm sure, it will bloom open before the 23rd...

(got ALL my tropicals out of the basement Saturday, finally night temps above 40!.... took me and my 3 adult children 3 hours... Now, I need some time off work to play outside!-everything looks like it is rearing to grow, may have lost a couple hibiscus)

AuntB you must have had a lot of plants in that basement.

A nice tropical mix of brugmansia, hibiscus, ee's, passiflora, jasmine, ferns, etc... I can't live in the "tropics" so I make my own, in the "coastal" state of KS. My house has a "walk-out" basement (garage on one end, storage and plants on the other,-storage area keeps getting smaller, lol).. We have to bring them out, then up a hill, through the front yard, around to the gate and into the back yard, watching for tree limbs and utility wires. I HAD to buy a new riding lawn mower this year AND.... (I'm so excited) a 17 cu ft. trailer to pull behind it (didn't HAVE to buy the trailer, but I LOVE IT and it will pay for itself in one growing season-purchase justified)... We made at least 6 or 7 trips... Makshi, last time I counted plants, it was kind of an indicator that I MAY have enough... so I don't count anymore. Most stay in pots, but I'm building a berm or mound this year to plant ee's and some KS hardy shade/part shade lovers (the ee's will be dug in fall-except for my zone denial experiments). We sat them all the plants under a shade tree and watered... (I could hear them telling me thanks, they look pretty awful right now, but they always know what to do once they get outside.)

I may just have a slim chance of winning this thing! Yahoooo!

Charlene
Rooting for 21st

I can't wait to see the bloom!
