OK, I know it's not very exciting to look at, but I'm really excited about this seedling I found when I got home from work this evening.

I have planted seeds for 5 brug types and Frosty Pink won the race.

I am expecting a difficult winter with them, but I have more seeds to plant in the spring if it all goes wrong, and thought I'd give these a head start, and maybe one or two flowers next year.

Is it just me? Your photo on my monitor is just a large black square...

Frosty Pink is a nice reliable favorite, although it is a hybrid, so your seedlings will vary! I wonder if you are able to obtain really excellent Brugmansia crosses from Germany there in your location? Perhaps some from Herrenhauser Garten or maybe from Kircher-Abel? You need some of the Euro- double pinks!!

John, I see the little green sprout.....it's like the round hunched look before it pops up straight......

These came from a friend in Florida.

They are all good crosses, which should hopefully reduce the probability of growing white flowers.

I have the list at home, I'll share it with you tonight.
