POTD: Flamenco

17 years ago

good morning friends, lurkers and visitors

It feels SO GREAT to post a BRUG POTD. The reason we are here.
{{gwi:498334}}From Picture of the Day for June 09

It was SO great to walk out in the morning yesterday to find it in such a nice flush. Considering this heat.

This one is sticking with me...like I am with you.

It is my oldest Daughters B-day today. 34 years ago I thought the world is coming to a end.

Here I am...still glad it did not lol

Have a wonderful day

Lucy

    Nice blooms AND leaves Lucy. Most of my leaves look like swiss cheese, I don't know what is eating them.

    Wish your daughter a happy b-day from me too.

    Hey Lucy,

    Your Flamenco is beautiful. My cutting finally rooted and put on some leaves after you told me to put it in the shade. (Thanks! :) I would surely love to see a flush like that here. (Providing I received the right plant! haha) Any flowers are great to me though!

    Happy Birthday to your baby girl! I always think of mothers on their childrens birthdays, All of the Pain, All of the Worry, All of the Care. We surely go through a lot having babies (and death crosses your mind at the time) but they sure are worth it!

    That's a pretty color! How tall is Flamenco, Lucy?

    and Happy Birthday to your daughter! My son turns 30 in a few days.

    That's a pretty brug. If the rain would stop for more then a day maybe mine would start growing at an acceptable rate. Most of my plants are growing very slowly and making the slugs fat and happy. Grrrr!!!!!! A belated Happy Bday to your DD.

    Thank you everyone I love the shape, the size and the blooms of Flamenco. But where as the blooms bloomed a few days in the fall, again this second year I have it, it does the same thing. Bloom are all wilted after one day :-( so last year it did not matter that it was in the morning sun so long.

    Daughter thanks everyone for the well wishes. Her boys baked her a strawberry cake. They are 7 and almost 4 years old lol

    Karyn I hope for you the rain stops and it warms up...it makes ALL the difference in how fast they grow, you are right.

    Pam I would guess it is 4' tall. But it was cut back. due to frost bites :-( Wish your son a happy birthday from this Garden Webber :-)

    Susan I am...like the energizing bunny. rofl

    Barb you say that now. Wait until I post pictures in the winter when they are all freezing and I leave em out there lol. Do they lock bad brug mom's up?

    Tammy you are so right about children. At this time in my life, all I do is reap the benefits. Enjoying the children and grandchildren to the fullest. Glad your cutting took :-)

    Rigo feed em...feed em lol. I can see them smile at me every time they get some food lol

    Shawn I see the bugs that eat mine...what you should know about me...I am a leave picker... If it gets to bad or turns yellow...while watering, they are GONE lol

    Chocolate Brug there are a few brugs that just feel like they will get old here because it is HOME to them. This one sure is my prettiest bushy brug.

    Siam really no secret. Like I just said...I take the yellow leaves off lol. But I do water them a lot and fertilize them at least once a week. I would like to do 2 times all the time, but this year I just got way to many :-(
    But mostly I have only ONE brug, the candida double white, that is in full afternoon sun. So I am not sure....but I try to watch the brugs and if they seem unhappy with everything I do to make them happy, I used to move them last year while they were all in pots. This year I have a few I might have to dig out again to make them happier.

    Wishing each and everyone of you your own beautiful flushes real real soon!

    Lucy
