Beautiful brug blooms, Charleen! With no rain here, and temps over 100, I have not had any brug blooms since early spring. I have lots of buds now, so I'm hoping for some blooms before the November wind blows in. This morning it's sprinkling and tomorrow we're expecting a good rain. So looking forward to it!

More beautiful photos Charleen! i think mine are getting a late start also because I didn't want to fertilize them very much in such a drought. They were just struggling to stay alive this summer. We're in stage 3 watering restrictions now. Looks like I might have a few opening tomorrow.
Gordon, the temp here is 73 this morning. I'm absolutely giddy! It's going to be in the 90s this afternoon, so I'm going to enjoy it while I can!

I just got in yesterday 3 brugs I ordered from JT. Karoline, Coral bells, and Royal ruby...................have to get them into containers today, and the waiting begins. The brugs always come in in such perfect condition when I order from JT. Makes me sad that he won't be doing the brugs any more.............. Sad

Nope, not Flame but it is a beauty too. Actually so far the Double Peach is darker than Flame but Flame has a beautiful shape to her bloom. I Love them all.
I have a small double that I can't remember it name it is a son or daughter of SAM. Can't think of the name but if I hear it I'll know it. Serendipty is a beautiful single bloomer, but the most wonderful smell is the Caitlaid/Daydreams I got from Brenda.

Charleen, I thought I lost my Brugs (the one you sent me and some I got from JT). My DD dogs, I was dog sitting, dug them up with all the roots looking at the sun. I stuck them all back in the ground and all appeared to perish. Crying
I was out moving some things in the bed and low and behold, there is a brug coming up. Hurray! Hurray!
Only one that I can see so far. Was I ever happy about finding that plant growing. Lovey dubby

I don't want anymore right now Charleen. I just need to concentrate on winterizing my flower and veggie beds. But thanks so much for the offer. Group hug
I was just so excited to find that plant that I had to share my happiness. Thumbs up
