Full of blooms when I leave work early in the morning,not a single bloom when I get home from work,this is what I call a morning plant.
And brugmansia an evening plant,is there a catorgory that describes the flowering times of plants,so a person can tell which plant to grow,for there time of day?
Lovely, Don. I love the color purple in flowers. I don't think there is any such classification, but it is a good idea!
Well when I retire I might just write a book,called
The am to pm garden,whats flowering and when!!!
Is that the one I sent you? It is very pretty!!
Yep that was the cutting you sent,last year,broke a piece off this spring stuck it in the ground,and its almost 1/2 the size of that one.
Boy, mine has some serious growing to do. Nice plant.
Tell you what. How about coming over to my house and yanking up all you want. I have purple and pink and there must be a couple hundred or so.
rylaff.......that's where the purple one came from...about 3 yrs ago...was Florida. I brought it back to Ohio...and it's been going strong ever since!! Of course...I bring it in for the winter.
Help!! Am I supposed to over winter the Mexican Petunias that I have? They aren't growing very fast and I'm afraid they won't have time to produce seed. Oh my gosh....I don't know where I'm going to hold everything for six months.
Brugie,LOL lets not even go there,I think I've over done it this year too!
Brugie, you just let me know if yours doesnt make it through the winter. I can hook you up with all you want. These things have become like weeds for me. They are everywhere. They do too well here. And the ones close to the house did not even die back for the winter. I would shop you a bunch now but it is probably too hot.
Thanks rylaff, but don't you think that besides the heat....my short summers might be my trouble? I have about 2-1/2 months before frost. I don't know where the time has gone. If you could save me some seeds that I could start at Christmas, maybe I could get bloom next year. I love the look of them.
I was gonna say Brugie, if you lose yours just let me know! I can "weed" the flowerbeds for you. I've got mostly short ones in pink and blue.
Look so nice and pretty, I has full of it.
I would like to get some the pink one if you have extra Cala?
Blue one too? I has purple one.
The "blue" is probably what you call purple. I've just always called it blue. I will try to determine which little seedlings are pink, or I can send seeds.
I have full of purple... I have been cutting them down but they grow back.. so I gave up and let them growing all over! :o)
Rylaff,if you get seeds from the white and pink,would love to get some from you,trade or sase.
I am sure I can gather some for you.
Sylvia sent me some...I think they are the short ones. Let me see if they are going to do anything this year. Maybe I just don't have a long enough summer. For me, I know I don't. Thanks Susie.
Thanks!
