Elizabeth, they are both beautiful, but the second pic is my favorite.
Dee

Hi Karen
glad to see you, is it raining there too. it has stopped & seems to be warmer than it was earlier
Elizabeth

Dee
hi, I am glad I found it, it took some searching, I have soooo many Pic's, next year it should be about 8ft tall
Elizabeth

Great Elizabeth! I believe you gave me a cutting of this one too. I should note it somewhere on my computer.

Jori
I am glad I gave you a cutting of it, now to get Dee's mailed off to her, of all the pinks, I really like the color of Harlot
Elizabeth

Harlots is beautiful, Elizabeth. Loved the pic.
Especially the second one.
Charleen

It is a beauty!.Looks like puffy pillows.
Dee

This one of my all time favorites, Versa color orange, this was taken last fall
Elizabeth

Charlene
the second pic was after it bloomed for a couple days
Elizabeth

Dee
next summer you'll get to enjoy it in your yard as well
Elizabeth

Elizabeth, you know I really love that Versa color orange Too.
Just too many plants to love.
Charleen

Elizabeth, your versi-orange is beautiful.So many blooms!
Dee

Here's a pic of my babies today. They are popping like crazy.
Dee

Elizabeth, I can hardly wait til next year, to see which of my cutting I am going to get blooms from!
Dee

Dee
you have a mini forest going on there looking good, next spring I am going to put more of mine in the sun instead of them being in the shade, I think they do better except the small ones
Elizabeth

Elizabeth, aren't there some that do better with a little shade?Or, is it just the southern sun that they don't do well in? I guess I need to read up on each one that I have before planting time. If I have some that need more shade,those will probably be planted in big pots so I can keep them on the patio, in the shade of the maple.The new beds that I am building are full sun.
Dee

Dee
there is a cold group, that will do better in shade, the sanguinia's, I have 2 of them, the only true red Brug, my Rosa lillaXWildfire, has a bud on it in the GH
Elizabeth

Elizabeth, I hope we get to see the the bud open!
Dee

Dee
just as soon as it opens, I will post Pic's you know I love Pic's too, also Super Spot has tiny buds, I just hope the weather doesn't turn really cold before they bloom
Elizabeth

Wonder where that Charleen took off to.She is always disappearing on us..lol
Dee

Dee
would you believe, I have some clippings with roots on them in the peatmoss, I tried one container with soggy peatmoss & the rest in just moist peatmoss, the soggy ones have roots, the moistened peatmoss, doesn't have roots yet
Elizabeth

Dee
she does do that doesn't she, I bet it's dinner time, my DH made pizza, I just love itwhen he cooks
Elizabeth

Wow, Elizabeth, that was quick!. Sometimes they just have my head swimming...too wet??...too dry??...eeeek, who knows...lol
I have lost a few already, but they were pretty much small green cuttings, that wree limp by the time I got them. I have a lot more rooting than I have lost, thats for sure! So, I guess that I'm doing ok.
Dee

Tonight I didn't cook either. We had leftover stew.
Dee

Got supper fixed and DH has eaten. Now watching TV.
That spray is pretty good stuff. I got some plants looking perky.
The little stubs are still looking pretty good. never did droop.
Do you all measure or just put enough in to color the water?
I got it in an old Windex sprayer.
Charleen

I am going to be digging hostas the next couple days, now that the rain is supposed to be over, for my swap with ken. That is one swap that I don't want to miss out on.He has some that I really want bad...lol

Dee

You always wanting those trades, girl. ^_^
That is the name of the game, isn't it?
Charleen

Charleen, I haven't got mine mixed yet. Need to buy a couple more ingredients.
Dee

Yes, it is the name of the game for me , Charleen. It's a good way to get multiple plants at a very good price...mainly the cost of shipping and little bit of work..lol...I already have the plants on hand to trade...soo...
Dee

Girls
the tea tree oil is the hardest to find but if you have paypal, Gardens Alive has it, it's in Lawerence Burg ind.
Elizabeth

I know, I like it too.
Dee, I made mine out of 5 ingred. I had or got.
2 c. water
1 bottle 12oz. beer
1/2 c. ammonia
1 c. epsom salt
1/4 c. molasses, black strap
made my own garlic tea.
Shook it all up and put it in a 2 litr. jug and moved it so my DH wouldn't think it a Coke and Drink it.
That stuff would have tasted YUK!!!
Charleen

I have ordered from them before Elizabeth...good company to do business with.
Dee

GNC has it too, I think.
Just haven't been there to get it.
Charleen

Charlene
I am thinking about getting the stuff together for when I plant my seeds in Feb. the reason why I don't do it sooner, there's no room, so I wait till it gets closer to spring, then make room, form the end of Feb till march I can heat the closed in back porch, without it costing too much
Elizabeth

do you spray it on your seeds, Elizabeth??
charleen

Charlene
no not on the seeds, just the seedlings when they looks like Dee's, I do peel the cork off the brug seeds after I have soaked them for 24 hrs
Elizabeth

I've been spraying it on my Baby.
It has another leaf. It is so cute.
Right on the plant Both sides.
