Gordon I would but when you get to be 86 that is a long way to go, but I bet you all have a good time, and if I did go I know I would come back with a car load.

oh Doris... I'll find the clip of the 86 year old gymnist... her floor excercise.. and one clip of her work out on the parrell bars... keep useing it... and you stand a chance...

I had that years ago, if I remember right she was from Ohio.

Today, it opened last night. Love it!!!!

That's beautiful Charleen. And you have blooms already. I'm glad that I didn't put mine in the ground yet. We have two nights of frost.

Charleen, beautiful brug. Nice color. Must be nice to have brug perfume filling the night air.............altho, Deebie, we had some near misses with frost ourselves here in Georgia the last two nites. I watched the outdoor thermometer creep down this morning to 34* at around 8:30 before heading back up......... too close!!!
I have buds but the only blossom so far is on arborea.

BTW......I seem to have two accounts that are automatically loged into when I click on this website as a Favorite, so don't be confused by 5doggies or 7 doggies, it is just me........and yes, I love my doggies!!!

I was glad I brought my plants inside the last two nights, we had heavy frost on the grass, was still there at 9am

Brenda, could this be one you gave me??? I still have several with your name tags on them....
No frost last night but Hubby covered his tomato with quilts....

We had frost last night and more in forecast for tonight. Some potted brugs don't look too good even though they had cover.

Mine either, All new growth shriveled and yucky looking. Well I DID say they were on their own...............................

I am in the same boat, I decided I just could not carry them in again last night, so will see if they make it or not, this sure is crazy weather.

If we got frost, I couldn't tell. Nice day today, 73* right now, and rising. Midwestern states may be in trouble stormwise, though.

your right Audry we have some terrific storms going on, supposed to last three days

Where are you? Did you stop growing Brugs? Does everyone know about your Clay making?

You know I've not quit growing brugs. I have a Pink Smitty getting ready to bloom in the next week. This site just sort of drifted off.

I have 8 of 24 brugs left and they aren't looking to very healthy. Was a rough beginning to 2013 and doesn't seem to be getting any better,

BettyDee said:Cherie,
Cherie Amour is a relatively old one — ~ 10 years old. It was registered in 2002. As a result, the few Brug nurseries that now exist probably don't have it. Have you tried contacting the sellers listed at Dave's Garden in the Plant Scout section?
http://davesgarden.com/product...
It's not listed on the main page, but maybe the sellers still have it. You would have to contact them personally.

As a last resort, keep an eye on e-bay. Just be sure to ask about the seller, as a few are not to be trusted to send the correct cultivar. 7servant7 is the worst of that lot. If you can't find the Brug 'Cherie', maybe another type of flowering plant will do.

I here that alot about 7S7. I have not purchased from them. They sure seem to have a bad rep on EVERY group I belong to. Sad.
