Hi fellow gardeners. I accidentally found this site while searching in the internet. After seeing all those yummy banana plant you fellows posting, i decided to join.

I mainly grow Brugmansia for now and just started growing adenium(desert rose) from seeds this year to expand my hobby.

Can't wait to chat with you guys/gals later.

Welcome Cora. I grow brugs also. Just started last year. Which ones do you grow? Any pictures? They go well with the bananas.

Wow beautiful brugs Cora. I hope to have some like that next year. I only had a few blooms this first year growing almost everything from cuttings.

I'm guessing that purple one is a Iochroma cyaneum.

I noticed the blue tape; are you pollinating?

best way I know to get lots of blooms on burg's is to over feed big time.

Yes!!!!brugs are gready on fert. I learn some variety of them, if you plant in the ground with right amendments they will grow and grow. I keep them in the pots to restrain their growth and bloom.

I am too old to be dragging them in and out over the winter that i'm pressuring my hubby in building me a real greenhouse.
