Hi Annie,
I don't have any brug blooming yet, but here in this corner....I've a big pot of brugs. Yes, pleural...

Over the winter a non-reputable mail-order catalog advertised for a tripple blooming brug for sale. I know there isn't such thing unless if they were grafted. But thank to that false-advertise add. It gave me an idea, so in a big pot, I planted 3 brugs, a pink, a yellow, and white. I may have planted a fourth one in there...let me go and double check. lol. Of all those were planted there, 'Eternity' is making buds...wooohooooo.

Kimbob, that is a beautiful location. Hopefully we will see pics. of all colors at one time in the same pot.

Central, AL(Zone 7b)

dahtzu, the chances of all of them to bloom at the same time is remote. The pink one bloomed a few weeks past. Now another 'Eternity' pink is making buds. Will wait for the white and yellow ones. :-)

Here was the NOID pink in bloom in mid June.

Well I looked at all the links, but it is just too far for me to travel. 500 miles is a bit long. maybe there will be one in San ANtonio, or Austin soon. I will try to watch the threads and see what happens.

Ok, I will swing by south Missouri (CAT), to kansas (AuntB), to Oklahoma(Merpeg), and then to CA(berkleyAnne), and on to texas next year for the RU...LOL?
Sounds like a pretty straight trip....LOL

Berkeley, CA(Zone 10a)

well happ.if it helps,i'll wait outside on my steps .

Midwest City, OK(Zone 7b)

And Annie will be wearing the Sanguinia blossom behind her ear, so you recognize her!

We will see what next year brings, but do think about it Sis's. I MAY be able to get some free SW flights . I just have to bake a lot of cookies, but I do have a connection. A stomach connection. I'll start working on that.

But we've got a year to plan and think. When Beck gets back, look at the pictures and do take the time to look at the wants/have lists. I think everybody needs to do an RU once in their lifetime. And that's just from hearing from Beck, I have not made one yet. Drat! They do sound like fun..

Okay, it's my nightime. 3 AM wakeup tomorrow for this hottie.

Lov all of you, remember to have fun, giggle, laugh and ROTF.

NE, KS(Zone 5b)

(I d-mailed her, told her to have sweet "cookie" dreams..;) Beck must still be unloading plants from the RU. I'm having a late supper and off to bed! Good night Ladies!

Central, AL(Zone 7b)

Nite nite, Bonnie, and all you hotties. lol. Bonnie, I've attended 2 RU in Lousiana. Yep, 6 hours drive each way. And it was a great experience. Hope to meet up with you and the rest of us here someday. Jaye, that include you sis.

Becky

I am busy packing plants for shipment tomorrow.
Brugs to new hottie friends, then I got into a couple of swaps so pack pack pack.
DH knows I lots my marbles along time ago, he can't quite figure out the digging, cutting, mailing, and receive plants thru the mail.
Everyone of my brugs has a bloom of some type on it. I am so excited!
The wind has been brutal on the leaves and way too much water. I know AuntB I need to put holes in those pots, but then in the winter they leak all over and I hate paying for those plastic things they get expensive plus I am afraid the dogs or cats will drink out of them.
Off to eat left over fried chicken my sister made me for my birthday....then back out to play.
Have good day everyone!

Central, AL(Zone 7b)

Hi hottie sis. I'm a dual resident. Vincent is just my mailing address. If you look into a map. There isn't any lake there in the area. :-) Becky, I'm happy that you attended a RU. Aren't them the great time to be had? Yes, when you visit Tn. Give me a holler, we can get together.

Hey Hap. I'd like some fried chicken for lunch please. Happy belated birthday.

Kim, oooh coffee cake with coffee in the morning, yeah!

Good morning to you Bonnie, we need to invite James over here to keep us ladies from going over board with our brugs. Do you think that would work? LOL.

Kimbob. ^_^

work has been slow today. I have been trying to catch up on viewing a few of the threads. That is some brug you have Clem. And the coffee cake looks
Really "Scrumpsious" Kim.

I hop in for just a little time, isn't life hectic. I would like to be counted in as one of the hotties but ... time really is taken up with family, work, gardening and church. This hottie is a little wilted.

I enjoy skimming the comments and wish you all well...and wish I knew you all better. What a fun group. Winter is the best time for me and the computer.

I bought 35 black 5 gallon nursery pots for my seedlings ($.50 each). I can't believe how big the brugs are getting. None have a Y yet, not sure if they will this year. I need 30 more pots to pot the rest of my seedlings up, they are really cramped in the 1 and 2 gallon pots. I have a few of my older plants - and cuttings from early winter - that have buds, hoping to have blooms soon. I haven't even taken the time to get my camera out. Soon, I hope.

Have fun all you "Hottie Nuttie Sis's and James." And all you other nuts that are having such fun with the brugs.

Marie

NE, KS(Zone 5b)

Clemen!! That is a gorgeous flush on such a short plant, makes you wonder how they hold them up.. beautiful! NHNS's, it's the nutty part thats keeps us laughing.. Kimbob, that's a great idea, I hope he's feeling better. Marie, that's a great deal on the nursery pots. Nice to have you in the NewbieHottieNuttySis's (NHNS?) group. We all get busy, but it's fun to know we can come back and it's like we never left (after we get caught up, sometimes, ya just gotta start over.. but it's nice to see the same people and find new friends. Hi to Kimarj, I know she's lurking somewhere! lol Beck, got RU haul planted, yet? lol Peggers!!! what's up today? Happ, that is so nice of you to get those ladies some brugs. Joyce, remember when you wondered what a brug was? Was it just last Fall 07 when I brought that 5 gallon bucket O Brugs to the round-up? Now you have blooms/buds on them all?? That is wonderful, it'll be smelling sweet in the evenings in your garden very soon! Clem, how's the smell on your flush? If I had 4 or 5 more hours of energy, I'd be about done in my plant area.

Nassau County, NY(Zone 7a)

Aunt b, that is mama brug in blomm last summer, she has not blossom now, BUT I AM GiVING AWAY A BABY BRUG, born out of Mama brug! We are all too nutty, just guess when pink beauty will be open and it will be yours hahahahah,(by the way it's rooteed too!) what else can I say sis's. Becky and Kim, you are up for it alright! hahahaha Clemen

Midwest City, OK(Zone 7b)

I'm on June 6th, Clem, though I don't really think it will go that long.

Work was weird today. I was like what is going on? Women are having c-sections on Sunday and all the surgeons are doing surgeries like crazy, on a Sunday.Then, it hit me, they are trying to get everything done before the holiday

What do you have planned for the holiday?....we just usually have a big cookout and friends over, swim, catch up with each other and just have a good time. Pretty laid back, but we have had up to 50 people here. Thank goodness, I have a large yard. My house could not handle it.

Beck, I'm sure has got to get everything planted from the RU.. Another one in the fall in Arlington? Let me know the date as soon as possible and I will be there. Like, Kim said, we already know each other, it's just getting the actual meeting done. :))

Kim, if you baked that coffee cake, I want the recipe. It looks sooo good.

Okay, my brugs are growing good, with new leaves, but I am not even close to blooms, unless one of them pulls a trick on me. I will get a picture soon of my family. I go and check about three times a day, and now DH is even looking for them. LOL, he first really thought I had lost my marbles when I started this, but after seeing the pictures, I think he is more impatient than I am..

Nite, nite, nutty hottie sisters.. Another early work day in the morning. Peg



Nassau County, NY(Zone 7a)

Peg, you're amonth behind, crazy sis, I think you mean July 6th hahahaha, Clemen, go have another cig!

Central, AL(Zone 7b)

Ok, hotties nutty sis. Now tell me when is this seedpod is going to ripen? It was 'conceived' last december. I think this thingy is overdue, needing induce labor? lol,lol. Hey Peg. Do they still use magnessium drips thingy now a day any more? lol.

Hey Kimbob epsoms salts are magnesium 11cc drip stat!! lolol : )

KImbob, I've never seen that, wow, can't you just pinch her or something or give her an epidural hahaha, Clemen

Henderson, NC(Zone 7b)

Hello everyone, I'm so excited...Some dear sweet person, Cathy of MO, sent me 2 brugs.
Cathy, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.! Both pink in color but different.
Big hugs Cathy.

Not kidding there, I use epsom salt equal teaspoon with household amonia on my my ailing plants in container garden. Joyce, Bonnie, can these brug benefit from such treatment. Aside, from mag. drips as Kim suggested for inducing labor. lol.

Congrats, Faye, in a few months you'll have brugs growing full spead ahead. Isn't DG a great place to garden with? I love it.
Kimbob.

(Kim) Philadelphi, PA(Zone 6a)

Yay congrats Faye!!
Kimbob that is a nice looking pod there..might need a specialist...

Midwest City, OK(Zone 7b)

Kim, Stat? :)) magnesium sulfate, "epsom salts" is supposed to be good for these brug babies to promote leaf growth. from what I've read.... also good for human babies to prevent early labor, cerebral palsy and high blood pressure in pregnant moms (pre-eclampsia). I don't know if it will induce that bud. Are you expecting twins (or doubles)?? Would a flower promoter/fertilizer help? I am seriously thinking about putting some of that on my first brug... Along with the tree spikes, time-released fertilizer and everything else I'm feeding it. Any time I'm giving something to another plant, I just give it some, too. That's why mine is so short and bushy. :))

Clem, I am behind or ahead. I don't know. I walked into a local hobby store this weekend and they have their Christmas items up for sale... So please put me down for July 6 or Dec 6, which ever one is right....

Oh, goodness, I am really tired. My hotness and nuttiness are wore out. Night Sis's. Peg
