Although if they are anything like the daturas that I grew a few years ago, they won't bloom here til close to the end of the summer unfortunately.

Re: Brugs Update............ dodge #225016 Jul 29th, 2008 at 12:54 PM plantqueen Unregistered plantqueen Unregistered I had some last summer and they bloomed later in August I believe. Unfortunately they didn't make it through the winter. I put them in the garage. If I can ever find any around here I will keep them in the basement next time! I was very sad to lose them! I loved them!!!

Look for a Y section with growth on both arms of the Y and that is where you should see blooms,,,,, again I believe in September,,,, Jessica I'm sorry you lost your plant,,,, I'll send some starters this fall if you want,, I had so many I ended up tossing a bunch,,,,,, three 6 ft brugs gave a lot of starts, when you cut them down to over winter "Grace without perfection is more to be desired than perfection without grace."

I also saw a tiny bud forming on the other side of the Y on that plant. Today, imagine my sheer joy when I found this - 2 more buds for a total of 3 - can you see them all? AND... my Adora brug in the front of the house has finally Y'd too! Hopefully it won't be long til I see buds on that one too!

I noticed that the pink ones did no Y out. I know that they only bloom after they Y out, or at every Y, can't remember which.

Again Lynne,, I'm just as thrilled for you as if They were blooming for me here,!! Thanks Diane. YOU should be proud too - afterall - they are YOUR babies! :wink: Thanks so much again for sending them to me! I'm really excited because I'll be able to see the flowers from the windows in the back of the house! Some flowers I can't, like the Adora brug that is on the front corner of the house - it's JUST about to get some buds too! It gets afternoon shade, so it's a bit behind the Charles Grimaldi that gets full all day sun. By the way Belinda - the one in the front droops everyday from the strong morning sun - but it perks right back up when the sun goes to the other side of the house. The one in full sun never droops - go figure?!? I used to water them everyday because I was worried about drooping - haven't in a while - usually once a week now, and they are doing fine. I just wish they had a longer flowering period here in zone 6, and that it didn't take so many weeks for them to get to this point. Diane - good luck with your new leaves - I have every faith that you will have blooms soon - you have great skill with all your plants there!
