She's about to ....

Good Morning!!!
Take a look : )

MEM..... I have other named cuttings but this will be the first one to bloom for me YAY!!
I think they like the fish emulsion and the recipe : }

ooh weee... oneanjl... maybe???? on the 2nd?? I've never seen one bloom except on James threads..lol so I don't have a clue... I'm "rooting" for ya oneanjl.... but if it doesn't... Kim can ya put that pot in the fridge and make her wait until the 5th??!!

Oh yes.. I see you being in Cal... lol about 10:00 pm for most of my buddies, but about 1:00am for me..lol

Kim... that is what I have been doing.. lurking all over these threads trying to learn from others experience, but I need to write it all down, cause I forget about 1/2 of it before I even finish the post !!! TY for the encouragement though...
AND.... if you had added FREE BRUG CUTTING TO GUESS THE DATE to the title of the thread ... we'd have been swarmed in here... kinda glad you didn't..lol I am learning all kinds of goodies

Now that would be a big fridge ; } Next time I put free in the title..I am new to this..... lolol. I have some pollen so maybe i will get some pods : )

Well, I don't think she will open all the way today. Am I at least right on the color?

jassmerr i'm not sure what the color might be still hard to tell...it's still a limey green color. : )

Shoulda picked limey green!!! ^_^

Good luck, everyone!

limey green or yellow? does limey green turn to yellow? cant imagine it would be pink... but I will be so happy even if I just picked the date right...means I might have learned and retained something from watching the other bloom! LOL!

I still say pale yellow.

I still say she will be fully open on my 22nd wedding anniversay, June 6th, I do not care if I win or not, June 6th, lucky day, that means more happy wedding days for me and a whole bunch of people who still believe in love, I still do! Clem

congrats cmdelg... whether we win or not..lol you are already a winner!!

Thank you beck so what day did u pick, Don't you just love these threads, they make us feel like children all over again! Clem

gosh yes... and it's kinda nice to act like a kid again cause when you reach a certain age... your just not responsible for your actions..LOL the "old age" thing

I picked the 5th, but don't know hardly anything about the blooms as I have never seen one open, except on James freebie threads.

I see you picked the 6th.. wonder if we can cut that thing in half and share??

beck... the only bloom I ever saw open was also on James thread... that was sooo fun!

I think I'm actually learning something! tee hee -who ever said you cant teach an old dog new tricks?!

Right oneanjl.... We can learn if it's something we want to..lol That was a fun thread... the first pic had me puzzled cause I didn't know what it was supposed to look like... but I finally figured it out... especially when some dger said it looked like "okra".. that helped a bunch...

Good Morning Kids!!!!!!!
Well it won't be much longer : ) here she is this morning.
Wonder what she will do while I am at work ????
Clem youi are a true romantic : )
Have a great day y'all!!!!
Kim

Oh my don't think it will make it to the 9th. Oh well, live and learn, right? This has been fun anyways!!

no abbis granma... I don't think it will nor will it last until the 5th..lol

oneanjl..... blow hot kisses from CAL........ maybe she will flower on out today!!!! LOL

Maybe next time!

It looks like it will open tomorrow or wednesday! Good luck to whoever wins, brugs are lovely! And yes I am a romantic! Clem

Nothing wrong with that! The world needs more romantics.

I know if we would all learn to love each other and stop hate, that would be an unreal world! Clem

warm whosh! warm whooossshh!

Okay, I'm trying here! LOL! anyone else wanna help send warm winds?! LOLOL!

Clem, I completely agree with you! I kept thinking that if the whole world were more like the people on DG, then it sure would make it a pleasant place! Then I realized that most of the people on DG are 'paying it forward' and if I pay it forward in the real world more often...maybe everyone else will do the same?....and if not, at least I'll be a more pleasant person :oD

oneanjl... guess Kim didsn't want to show us another pic.... Sorry...

BUT....... KIM PUT THAT THING IN THE FRIG......Think... 5th...think 5th...lol

Yes Clem it is nice, especially you being a man admitting you are a romantic, and I bet your wife adores you for it!!

Nah I just had a hectic day... sigh... Good Morning!!!!!! Here she is today : )
This is really fun! More cuttings to come pruning time! Everyone have a hapy day ^_^


Kim

Come on 7th... I can see yellow :)

You can definitely learn on this thread... Brug buds look like "okra," doggy poop as fertilizer (as I look at my 70 pound mutt in a different light) and dear Clem is a man! I somehow had Clementine in my head. Oops! I apologize Clem for the mistake. :) Peg

Nope, gonna wait until the 9th! LOL

Merpeg, I too thought Clementine. Well, that is even nicer to have a man admit he is a romantic! So many wouldn't. Good for you Clem.

I think I still have a shot, the 6th, the 6th! And I am a lady! How did I fool you guys, I think you guys are thinking I am from the Philippines right? I know there they use Clem and Clemen. Well my name is actually Clemencia, haha, I just shorten it because I do not like my own name! How funny! Clem, Clemen, Clemencia

Ah ha. The mystery is solved. :)

Clemencia is a beautiful name. Try getting named Peggy and your grandad's favorite horse was named Peg. I thought I was named after the horse when I was a little girl!

Okay, serious, (maybe?) How long does it usually take for a brug to bloom? Is there a usual average number of days and is it going to be variable due to climate?

I defnitely want to know before the next bud to bloom thread starts!! Tee hee.... Peg

Peg, another cute story about names, my daughter's middle name is Laura (after my mom in - law) So one day my daughter says, mom, I hate my middle name why did you name me abuela, I am not old like abuela Laura (grandma in Spanish) I started laughing so hard! Yours is a good one too! Clemen

Okay, I am checking in also. I just assumed Peg knew! Wrong!! It is a lovely name and I would have guessed Spanish. Your granddad's favorite horse--how funny, Peg? I can see why as a child you would think that. Isn't it odd how we form these ideas when we are small?

I was named after the wife of the G.D. Searle Pharmaceutical Company--all I got was the name and card and no more. Would have thought for sure there would have been a few shares of stock! LOL

Abbisgranma, I was pretty sure that Clem was a lady but some of the DG names are not specific. Clemencia, I hope you have a wonderfully fantastic anniversary on the 6th. I've got a husband I wouldn't trade for anything, not even a brug, and we just had our 20th. :))

Other thoughts, Kim, I hope you had a nicer, less hectic day today. Grab a nice iced drink and just soak in your garden a bit. Think about how you are sharing all your beauty with a whole group of people and we appreciate it! HUG!

Oneajl, how is your brug walk coming along? I think that was you??

Watch this brug bloom on a day no one picked... So much fun, though.

Got to go, working doubles today. Peg

My name is Peggy too, nickname for Margaret. I wish they had started calling me Maggie which I like better, oh well just wishful thinking. Decided to be Pegi when I first learned about computer. Sami is my 3 yr. old mini schnauzer, short for Samantha who is full of piss and vinegar.

One of these days I'm going to be a owner of some brugs, can't wait.

Can relate to that description! My son's dog, Wallace, is the same.

Peg you are a romantic too I see! Clem

Hello!! Glad to see everyone chatting away : ) Clem ya had me fooled too ! Thanks Peg I needed that : ) Ahhh romance......

Sorry Gals! I already married the MOST romantic man out there! tee hee!
He even insisted on marrying me in the same exact spot where he kissed me for the first time... just happened to be a victorian parlour in a state historical park (and not the back of a chevy! LOL!)

Wow You are one luck lady!!!!

Peg, I'm still waiting for the cement to be poured on that walkway! LOL! DH is diligently working on it... but we have quite a ways to go :o( Also waiting for 12 more brug seeds to sprout.... but I'm patient! LOL!
we were originally going to build an arbor to cover the stairs and the walkway all along the 'gym' (soon to be converted to potting shed!) but decided to just build an arbor over the steps only, and the brugs will line both sides of the walkway all along the gym. We are mortaring the brick pavers on the steps now... then we get to start the walkway ! whoo hoo!

I agree Kim..... lucky oneanjl... you better appreciate what you have!! Aren't you pretty too!

Kim.. what about our girl?? Is she more open??lol
