Hows Everyones brugmansias!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

by njoynit on March 01, 2006 11:08 PM

I just thought I'd check how everyones brugmansias are doing.I hauled mine out yesterday.most my plants are parked on deck soaking up the great weather(Their own lil madi grasi he he hee [tongue]

)
I have one that i've planted in the ground(2/14)Charles G the soil temp was 48& was 56 out when planted it.We did have a light frost 26th,but I had removed the leaves already when planted so was unharmed .I have another that I will plant out sometime today & another the 15th.I'm seeing if it matters with the soil temp as to how it preforms.all 3 cuttings are pretty much the same size 1 charles 2 dr suess.

I have sprouts outside showing.
I have sowed 11 seeds of white suav on 2/14 & 9 have sprouted.And will be getting some more seeds soon to grow out as well.

I'm also close to my planting time [clappy]

njoynit...I love looking at your pictures! [grin]

My brugs are still growing...almost 7' tall.
I can't wait to take them outside, but it's still a long time away for me.

I'll get some pics later when I get back and show 'em to you!

I'm still waiting on work to RESUME on my flowerbed.He's got the stock market on his side....timbers are on SALE $1.75.He's suppose to buy me a pallet full& we are going to have a wet weekend.I had planned myself to have this project done my last frost(Feb 26.but said March 3rd would be great)I guess will grab a tray and plant my orange daylillys in it for now& have 2 5 gallon buckets full of sprouting plants.

I got caught last week giveing grass away. [shocked]

I was weeding flowerbed.that big 300 ft one.I saved the St augastine pieces for june.well her hubby thanked my hubby [lala]

I got yelled at for giveing away grass when we have bare patches that it can go in [lala]

My seedlings are doing great& as of yesterday I had 1 remaining to be sprouted,but its up now.

The white feather marks the 1st one sprouted& yes...Its a duck feather.I also sowed 10 more seeds that I came across while looking for for my cosmos.they are just a plain out unknown seed cross.
I planted jamica yellow yesterday.I've been on a 'garden claw' weeding beinge for 2 days.I have another jamica yellow for the other end of bed.I also have about 10 more brug plants to plant out.My knighttii has got buds.looks to be about 6 forming.So now we know who is 1st to bloom& I'm watching my charles grimaldi trunk cutting for buds forming.I'm starting fertilizeing today.My plants are sprouting away in ground.
