Contest..

Brooklyn, NY(Zone 7b)

OK.. lets have a contest.. SO.. there's this Brug aficionado . [ like an addict... but with available cash not only for his passion.. but for the treatment ]. We'll just call him GH.....and he has his brugs inside and he has to put them out in his roof garden..now that the temperatures are warming up some.. he's got too ...too many.. for sure... counting the homes he can find for them near by.. [Other roof gardens..backyards..where he can visit and judge them..and get cuttings later .... and space at his mothers.. for more.. and given the fact he's killed dozens already this year decreasing his current total.....
We'll give one of these live growing.. plants of a named cross... small enough to ship easily..to the one having the correct answer to the question >>>>or the closest ones if the number isn't guessed..closest high.. and closest low.. will both win... and we'll consult with the winners as to their preferences in flower..of the available Brugs..
Just how many Brugs does GH have... that a few days ago he was truely ... going to some how..before the actual count.. and inventory..work into spare parts his roof garden..full of vines and tropicals..
SillyLad...
Come Tuesday morning..well stop this and talk to the winners..
possible awards might be we'll talk...
