Brugmansia 2

Here is a Frosty Pink cross that flowered for the first time last night. This is planted outside and it is a year since I planted the seed.

 

That is beautiful, Rich. I love those first photo. My pink Sauvolens is having a rest at the moment after it burst of blooms ... at least, I hope it's just having a rest!

 

Nice one rich, bet you enjoy that scent.

 

Took these today.
Taylor Dawn an american hybrid flowers are 16" long leaves are 30" long.



Versi colour peach (more white than peach)but a good firm flower.



Yellow suaveolens flowers its socks off third flush this year.



Arborea one of the smallest (original wild brug) self fertile and one of the best scents, likes it cooler.


Sanguinea nice colours no scent prefers it cooler like the Arborea flowers better in autumn.



Front garden, apricot white and pink backed by roses.

 

This time last year it was a seed, I planted it in August. I planted the seedling in the border in May.

Edited to say I'm not ignoring you Walnut, I can't see the pictures due to Websense. I'll see them at home tonight.

 

Wow they are fantastic!!!!!
Mine is in a pot on the patio this year. It was lovely lush and green, then after all the wind and rain, it had turned yellow and lost most of its leaves!!!! No sign of a flower either...

Any ideas why its turned yellow??? (I've been giving it Tomato food)

 

Rich,Walnut...........Beautiful blooms and very well done its not easy in this country to keep them looking so good.I am still hopeful for mine....another month I think.

 

Absolutely spectacular, guys. My Pink one is in full flower. (Actually had a couple of nights where I could sit on the patio and enjoy the scent!!) The flowers are just developing on the cuttings from last year.

 

I see the pics now walnut, superb.

Once I've moved house I'll be able to grow them more seriously. I still have one pod left from the pollen you sent me, but now I have my own source of pink pollen.

Nevertheless, I was expecting someone to have a go at me for growing non-named crosses, but she tells me open pollinated crosses are acceptable, and I should register it with a name.
