The quad pink? She's got tiny buds on her -- hopefully she won't drop buds like she did last year! And, hopefully, she'll work out her kinks this year too.

You'll have to let us know how she performs this summer.

Lodi, CA(Zone 9b)

Thank you...


It is so nice to get one that is more than worth "holding over to see if she straightens out" I'm thrilled. It really is like getting a wonderful gift when one spits out such beauty first time out..

It's been in the 90's here and she still looks great!

Lodi, CA(Zone 9b)

Wow zz that is incredible that she still has her blooms I want one of those..........lol

Brigham City, UT(Zone 5b)

Oh, that is just thrilling. So beautiful. Congratulations. I don't believe I would be able to leave her to do my work. I would have to go back too often to make sure it is for real.

(Tammie) Odessa, TX(Zone 7b)

ZZ, you should have heard my mother when I showed her the pictures of your brug.. now she wants one. Of course. Then I have to find a place for one. good thing they are not that easy to find. They never sell them here. I haunt every place that sells plants to see if they ever get some... no way.

Tammie

Lodi, CA(Zone 9b)

Thank you all for the kind words.. it is so hard to believe she is real!!

Tammie, there are several websites to get good brugs at a reasonable price. http://shop.seedsprout.com/main.sc is a great one. http://countrygdn.com/ is another great site!
For cuttings http://katskuntrykuttins.com/passifloras.htm
and more that escape me at the moment.

Hope that helps!

Fountain, FL(Zone 8a)

What a BEAUTIFUL brug....you and Brenda both done good!!
