Shredded White???

17 years ago

Is this how shredded White starts out?

Not many leaves on the plant but lots of blooms.

This is the first time blooming. It looks to me like a reg. bloom.

If you can call an angel regular. LOL

    Gosh Dorothy, I don't remember how my shredded white starts. I believe the buds on mine were a bit fatter. It will be great to watch how yours develops.

  • 17 years ago

    That does not look like my SW. My blooms are much shorter and fatter. I have 2 plants and they are almost never without blooms.

  • 17 years ago

    Shredded white buds are loose and do not form trumpets. None of those are shredded.

    Dimples, I looked at your photobucket pictures, I have a shredded white rooted cutting, if you could possibly send me a couple cuttings from that pink one that has a flower inside a flower :)

    Hey Smurfy,
    Thanks for the offer but a friend is already sending me one.
    Thanks

    Dorothy I do not have one but when I saw Kristy's last year..I could not believe the SIZE of that flower coming out of the calyx. Also smurfy is I believe right, it comes out all shredded looking. Not like a trumpet.

    Was it a share or trade Dorothy or did you buy it? It sometimes is sad that we have to wait so long to see that there might have been a mix up.

    By george...I know how that goes. Took hibiscus cuttings a few weeks back. Had them in shot glasses on the kitchen window all labeled. next morning they were all laying all over. That PRECIOUS kitty decided to do a little mix up.

    You all will not believe how many unknown seeds I got now roflmao

    Dorothy if not a SW, I hope it will still be a gorgeous angel for you!!!

    Hey Lucy and all,

    I received it for postage last year. So it a lot lost.
    And who knows what it maybe.
    Sweet Jill will be sending me a real SW. YEA ME!!!
    I know how things and get mixed up.
    I planted Day lily seeds this and up came 4 o'clock. LOL
    But I like 4 o'clocks so no big deal.

    Dorothy so happy that Jill is coming to the rescue :-)

    Jill you are GREAT!!

    Oh man I would have sown out LOTS of Daylilly seeds. ha ha you have everything filled with 4 'o clocks Dorothy? ha ha ha I love them also

    Lucy

  • 17 years ago

    That is sweet Jill... We are family that song will be in my head now..lol

  • 17 years ago

    There's a big difference between daylily seeds and 4 oclocks lol. daylilies are black and round and smooth, 4 oclocks are big fat, and grooved, and have a little "cap" at one end.

  • 17 years ago

    My pink four o'clocks make black roundish seeds, pretty large.

    oh I LIKE IT!!!Just look at how the edge is almost as flat as a plate!! Sorry don't know how else to describe it lol.

    It also looks like it might be blooming for days.

    It does look like it is LOADED with buds. Does it have a scent?

    Congrats on a new addition to the NOID family lol

    I agree that it's pretty easy to tell DL and mirabilis seeds apart but for someone that hasn't seen either I can also see where they might confuse them. I was reading a post in the name that plant forum and someone had confused datura and mirabilis seeds. Now that's hard to do! lol

  • 17 years ago

    NOT FOR ME roflmao....ha ha ha Karyn you could give me ANYTHING and I would not know them apart roflmao again.

    Ok by know I DO KNOW the seeds that I HAVE BEEN growing in my garden lol

    Lucy

  • 17 years ago

    LOL some seeds I know. But some you get form trades or RR.
    The packages say one thing and its another.
    Surprise Surprise Surprise
    If all in the love of gardening.

    Oh Dorothy I LOVE surprises lol I think it is awesome when you have to wait and wait to find out WHAT you are growing there ha ha ha ha Most of the time BEAUTIES grow.

    Sometimes Giants. Like the MG tree. lol Or the Royal Poinsettia tree ha ha ha

    Isn't it great if one has NO idea about plants and names? roflmao

  • 17 years ago

    Oh Dorothy, that's a beautiful bloom! The white is so luminous! I'm sorry it wasn't what you thought it was, but it's a beauty anyway!

    Karyn1, my brugs have seed pods, when they ripen, do I plant them or can I wait until spring?

  • 17 years ago

    Smurfy I am not Karyn but we all jump in to help.

    How old are your seed pods? You know they take MONTH to ripen right? You can sow out Brug seeds anytime of the year you want to. They just require different care then. 1st year I could not get them to germinate for me. NO method worked. I guess I wanted my own seedling to much.

    the advantage of sowing out FRESH seeds from brugs is that you do not have to take of the corky shell.

    A little hint...the question of yours is totally OFF the subject from this thread. The quickest and surest way to get a answer is, if you start a new thread with it :-) So if I was not able to answer your questions...start a new thread to get them faster. Cause most folks might not come back to this thread once they were there.

    Anyways..congrats on the seedpod. We all love to get them but it is hard for most to get them to ripen fully while outside.

    Did I give you that? It looks like Hawaiian Double white. If you want shredded white I'll send you one. It get huge ball gown looking blooms on it.

  • 17 years ago

    I'm not sure where I got this one. I am pretty sure it was for postage.
    I thought I was keeping better records LOL
    Kristy I don't think it was you...and who ever it was it's ok.

    Here is a couple more pictures this morning. One thing about it, IT's a great little bloomer.
    This is its first time blooming and it's still going!
