I noticed a few of the cuttings....are getting buds...........I only looked at one jug.I moved my brug cuttings outdoors for 2 days& now moved them back in(thats a 22 minute trip of relocateing those cuttings back) I see a few of them that had 'y'd have buds forming.

Hi Njoynit! wavey grinnnn

They are about the same they just look sad , they need some sunshine for sure I'm sick of this weather! eek eek I'm pretty confident they wiil perk up once I get them outside!

Because we have simular weather, do you recommend full sun or part sun/shade AND do you recommend they revive in the pots they are in by setting outside for a few weeks BEFORE going in ground ( once the weather warms and hold steady)?
AND when I do put them in the ground should I fertilize with 20-20-20 when I plant in??
grinnnn

Sibyl yours will do good in full sun.Its not as warm as mine.I'll have some of mine in pots so can line my sidewalk(so can move the plants when us rednecks drive in the yard....)

Angel.some do better than others in full sun in TX& do better with lower leaves stripped up to the 'Y'.I fertilize& root start mine in ground day of planting& strip all leaves so adjusts better.sometimes I might have to shade one a week or so with a chair when 1st set out or can set pot in location and move back& forth till adjusted light wise.also watch when Carrie sets hers out.She's closest to your weather.You can mulch your roots end of May.soil will be warmed then& they'll wilt a lil less.


Here's my recent shots

I have an overgrown child...He sometimes RIDES the 3 wheeler in the yard.I bet He THOUGHT He was gonna die when riding 3 wheeler up ramp and on top of a Brugmansia pot last year.....I was running across the yard with a shovel....ready to swing....tossed my beer at him instead.

I've ALSO used the red 3 wheeler as a plant stand before....It WAS parked on the deck.It was just perfect.


They'd probably like the morning sun afternoon shade.Pots will dry out faster.I'll learn just how fast this season. teech

Plantqueen.I'm still watching.I only got 1 single piece of mail yesterday.....so maybe a boxful today.

They would look SOOOOO much better in ground......I've learned a 12 X 14 laundry room is not big enough in the winter.It was 25 here this morning(No big deal to me really....I lived Indpls 11 years.BUT I'm thawed now.so I feel it.)It's 31 on the cold GH temp and laundry room was 54,but I'm back to slaveing with the laundry...so.


I bought a Satsuma Seto yesterday for hubbys Valentine's Day gift((See what ya get when ya get me a grandfatherclock.......))I wish I had another $30 to get the milo also.The other was a mr graham.

The tall one is 6 ft 4 inches seedling Butterfly X Whiskers.I like it.It smells good and the flowers get a waxy look to them.Blooms good too.And it has 2 small buds forming (and the white thing in its pot....its a blown light bulb...its helping keep the trunk erict.Its nice out today.Its 74,but too breezy for fishing............BUT I bought a pair of new slip bobbers,some crappie jigs& more swivels(swivels are bait changers ya hook N unhook...beats tieing all the time& helps me keep from tangling my line as much.)and some larger claw hooks that are stronger.I'm still mad about about that large crappie.He was big enough to bend my hook stright.

The ones in the collection are angel trumpets& the purple people eater is a duantra
http://michiganbulb.com/search.asp?ss=brugmansia&x=14&y=7

so are you going to grow in pots or in ground?you'll have to bring yours in for the winter....or could cut the trunk and re root the whole trunk and winterize that way.you'll love them.They are fragrant at night time& you can sit outdoors sipping a beer watching them change and you may get hwak moths
