Once again, in a few weeks I will have some big brugs which did not make my cut to give away. If any of you live near me and want to adopt a big brug PM me. I will have Balao, spring peach, Rosenquartz, and several others to be determined. Every year I get a bunch of new ones, but come fall I have to find new homes for ones that either look too much like others we have or just do not excite us.
We live about 1 hour north of Syracuse.
NNY'ers adopt a brug
Wish I lived near you I have been wanting rosenquartz............lol
James
Well James, she is 7 feet tall and as wide.
You need to go to the swap in Florala next month, i am sending a big box of cuttings down for people.
Wow brenda wish u lived close I would have love a cutting of Balao
Elva
I dont have a car so I can not go to the trade darn.................James
Carol usually goes,maybe she will give you a ride
Elva, I am not keeping Balao because she looks just like Ecuador pink. I have a 12 foot EP.
OH I may be going with Carol thought it was in october
It is in Oct.
Oh right, i am not going this time so i didn't pay attention to when it is.
Is anybody driving through MD?
Linda
I should add, these brugs are very large. One is about 4 feet, the rest are over 8 feet. They can not be mailed.
WOW, they are so big and I am drooling here. I am in your state but it looks pretty far for me. It is very tempting though!
How about sending some cuttings?
I work 65 hours a week and more. I just don't have time to take wrap and pack cuttings then go stand in line at the post office. If you have done this you will have some idea of how much work it is. It also always ends costing money to ship those boxes that where heavier then I thought they would be.
I am sorry, I just can't do it.
Wow, 1 hour north of Syracuse almost puts you in Canada doesn't it?
It would be too obvious in the car going over the border or I'd jump all over it...LOL
I agree, it is a lot of work.
Linda Kay
Yeah, I am 20 minutes from Canada.
dress it up with ribbons and bows.. and inport it properly...as the party decoration it is.. Gordon
I can see me, crossing the border with a 7 foot Brug in a mid-size sedan...peeking around a veil of blooms through the windshield...branches let loose as I roll down the window to pay the toll...not obvious at all!!!
they'd .not believe it was real.. sure lady.. 16 " :flowers... got to be synthetic.
Offer over folks, all brugs have found a home.
Whew, that is good news!!
Hubby got worried when I asked him if the back seats fold down ^_^
Very nice!!
Brenda - THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I feel so fortunate to have been introduced to you by Dawna - and then to drive out and see your lovely yard, learn so many new things and come home with some very special treats. Your generosity with your knowledge and cuttings and whole plants was greatly appreciated.
Too many varieties to list - but WOW!! Chris was thrilled when I told her to take the 3-4 foot tall blooming one (was that Balao?).
I'll definitely try to do justice to your generosity to a newbie trying to get started again.
Yes, by all means pay it forward. That is what gardening is all about. It was so much fun to have you come and load you up.
Look at what Pink Beauty did a few hours after you left, and this is only one for the tiers of blooms.
