see what happens when you skip a day or not read all postings rofl

With being outside and working my butt off the last 2 days. I come in at night and yesterday I did not even make it past I think like 8 pm. But that sure is a great way of sleeping like the dead lol work work work

Got to hurry. Cause I want to continue painting the house. Man I REALLY got to hurry because all the bushes and stuff is waking up and THEN painting will be a PAIN to place the latter again.

Eddie you are always in our thoughts. We love ya.

Congrats Eddie and Jerry...Barb

Hello, everyone! The excitement continues to build here as Jeri and Eddie get closer to the launch of their website, www.worldofbrugmansia.com. Unfortunately, we've had to delay the launch a bit, since both are very busy with other projects. There's just not enough time in a day to get everything done. With regret, we have pushed the opening date to March 15th, only because we want everything to be just right when we fling open the doors and invite everyone to join us in the wonderful world of brugmansia!

Eddie's local season is about to begin and he has been no help at all with the website...just kidding.....but he does have over ten thousand succulents to care for and over three thousand brugs in the greenhouse so he has had very little time to help with the site.
Jeri has had a few delays of her own...her property looks like a construction zone...she decided she needs more room to grow her fabulous brugmansias so she has brought in bulldozers (really!) to remove several huge palm areas to make room for more! Jeri is very focused on hybridizing, with over 100 seed pods set already and she is just getting started..
Ed and Jeri have a goal to growing out 1000 brugmansia seeds this year. They have collected pollen all year and have a huge number of stock plants to breed with. With any luck, they should create some very interesting crosses! So, you see, these are very exciting times around here!
Happy Gardening!
Jeff

Congrats Ya'll!!
Thanks for the update Jeff!! I hope we see you hanging around here some..LOL (hint hint)
Kylie

You guys hurry up so I can close my site down, it's sure a pain to keep up and running! Congrats!!

Karma your site is a one of a kind. You really should keep it going for us!

Jeff thanks for the update. With all those plans...I hope we get to see you all and you don't get lost in the brug / succulents forrest lol

Lucy

I just wanted to BUMP this up so you have the chance to sign up for their news letters..If you haven't
Kylie

I love the colors on the website :) Will it only have brugs or also other tropicals?

I just signed up for the newsletter. Thanks!

Theresa

I did too, thanks for letting us know about it!

Greetings from the world of brugmansia, where it's always "Happy Gardening"! with Jeri and Eddie!!
Jeri tells me that our website is getting some last minute fine-tuning. jeri works with (i.e. pesters) the designer night and day, tweaking this and that...who knows? She has assured us that worldofbrugmansia.com will be fabulous, even if we have to wait a little longer. Jeri says she would have been done by now but, as usual, she was getting no help from Eddie, who can't seem to leave the greenhouse...always something interesting going on in there! Who knows?
Jeri says the website will open in stages and the first stage will be an open forum intended to give brugmansia growers a place to share knowledge and ideas, pictures and experiences...there are so many topics of interest and we know that you, the reader, are uniquely qualified to report, inquire, and debate and share all of the best (and sometimes, the worst) from your world of brugmansia!
Eddie's collection of angel trumpets will debut in stage two, according to Jeri. I don't think he really knows how many different ones he has, (he claims he knows EXACTLY, thank you) but they'll be presented in a beautiful gallery display designed to entice you to add to your own collection. Eddie says the brugs will be of finest quality, robust and rooted, shipped in the container, and he will strive to make sure every one that goes out is at least 12 inches tall, since a larger starter makes a more beautiful tree.
In addition to coordinating the website, our Miss Jeri is busy as a bee with her hybridization program, which she runs from her fabulous home in south Florida. Jeri will present her offerings of brugmansia cuttings in stage three, after all of her little seed pods have ripened and been collected, so she's anticipating this to happen in early summer. Jeri and Eddie are both driven to collect more and more for their hybridization programs because they see the possibilities of it all and they have a deep curiosity and boundless energy when it comes to breeding angel trumpets. The results have been great so far. We're all getting ready for "the next big thing"!
Two other ideas being considered for www.worldofbrugmansia.com are a live chat area for stimulating conversation, pithy comments and simply fun back-and-forth for brug lovers, growers and the people who love them, and, lastly, we'd like to investigate with you, our reader, the level of interest and concern on the topic of brugmansia heritage preservation. Many brugs are being lost over time and we are hoping others are as concerned as we are with saving brugmansia heritage. We're open for suggestions and comments. From my world to yours, Jeff.
Contact me at NC brugmansiaguy@aol.com for ideas and suggestions on newsletter.

I agree that the preservation of the true species is very important and should be looked at with deep concern..
Looking forward to the 'Grand Opening!!"
SOOO what kind of door prize will there be??? LOL ;O)
Kylie

Door prize sounds good.... Free Brugs for Everyone!!! jk!!

I want to say I got my new Box of Brugs to day and want to thank Eddie for my wonder addition. I was so nervous because it dropped to 20 last night and they still arrived today PERFECT. I have my own EDDIE bed starting yall. LOL But seriously. Brandy Thanks for your creations and those hard to finds that I would be scared to try to import. Your the Brug Bomb! LOL

Like Kylie said..... The preservation of species thing is very important.

That is what I strive for most in my Brugmansia hybridizing. Just for fun I keep 1 candida, 1 culebra, and Lockwood 621. (which is assumed to be a vulcanicola x sanguinea hybrid.) The only other hybrids I have are the Flava seedlings I just started,

You will see quite a bit of 'pure' species hybrids coming from me in the next few years.

Can't wait to see the site !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great Job Matt!!!
The Vulc I have got kicked over out of the pot by the dogs.. I just knew it was gonna head south..BUT I stuck it in a smaller pot and didn't even water it and it is putting on new foliage..The seedlings you sent me didn't make it ..MY fault.. I have been out of town and DH works from sun up till sunset and then there are cows to handle when I'm gone... BUT thank you for the wonderful plants you sent.. I have a Yellow Aurea here once it blooms we can take a look and check the chareristics and see what really is.. You know you are welcome to any thing I have..
Kylie

Not much longe :-))))))) This sounds like it is a site that has it all.
