Fandango is a registered Brug that is apricot and a double flower.
Santa Rosa is dark pink and a single flower.
The size and price you got is good.
In a nursery up here you would be looking at paying $89.00 for the same thing.

Great deal the pot alone is worth $ 10.00+. Make sure you watch or treat for mites. I have not been to the nursery lately cause I have plants everywhere. LOL I could not pass up a bargain like that.

Great find and an even better price! If I thought the Walmart's around here would carry a remotely interesting plant I'd take a look but they don't carry anything. I went to see if they carried ST and it was the saddest looking nursery that I'd ever seen. The HD's don't carry much in the way of tropical or sub-tropical plants here either : (

Hello everyone: My Walmart Brugs are doing very well. They seem to have finished this bloom and I think they might be getting ready for another flush. Both are VERY pot bound. Small hair roots coming to the top of the soil. I am having Large holes dug for them so I can inground them next weekend. Need instructions, please, on how to handle the roots. Do I trim roots, or can I try to loosen them and just plant the entire root ball into the ground? TIA Gloria

What type of soil? If it is a clay base make the hole bigger and add amendments. I do not disturb the roots if at all possible. As long as the soil is semi loose they will find their way rapidly into the surrounding area. A dose of super thrive seems to make them not miss a beat in hot weather. Water real good to avoid any air pockets. I am a Vermiculite person. I always add some to my surrounding soil dug out. I have a ton of it. So I guess that is why I use it so much. It makes the roots spread fast.

Thanx, Jim. I Always amend the soil. Have been adding several shovelsfull of worm castings and the plants semm to luv it!! I have had a problem with Miracle grow
bloom Blaster. All the plants I've been feeding it to including my gardenias have not done well at all. The Brugs stopped making leaves, and I'm sure I've lost quite a few of them. I's the only thing I did different for them than for my other plants. I have stopped using it, still using ST, but am going to try plain old tomato plant food. Have you had any problems with MG? the plants were not burned, I did not overdose them. carefully watered the stuff in. but oh my what a sad result. Gloria

What a Bargin!!! I think I must shop at the same WM as Karyn... nothin but crap!!!!! dead crap at that!!!LOL
I hope you will put up some pic's I would love to see what ya got... OH AND CONGRATS!!!!

Hi Chena: Good to hear from you ... it's been a looong time!!! Went back to Walmart last weekend, but not a Brug in sight! Guess it was a one-time-good-deal and I happened to be in the right place at the right time (LOL)
I've had some bad luck with some of my Brugs (see MG Booster post). One of the many Brugs I've lost is a Susie Q. I know you've got her and she seems to do well for you, so maybe when you start trimming, we can trade or pay. Again, glad to hear from you. Blessings, Gloria

Hey Gloria!!! Thanks It is nice to see everyone!!! I have had some trouble with Susie Q as well.. Just isn't preforming... I will have some cuttings of Miss B Havin tho.. Linda H you out there??? I will have some cuttings for you as well...Got my fingers crossed on a couple of other doubles that are just now putting on blooms..
Hoping Everyone Has A Very Blessed Day!!!!
Chena

BTW!!! I have seen alot of Beautiful pic's here lately..Congrats to everyone's success this season!!!! Good Job!!!

Gloria, my Susie Q's are doing exceptionally well this year...I have Y's on top of Y's on top of Y's. I don't know the reason for this as they weren't nearly this big last year, but the blooms are gorgeous and it was my favorite of all the pinks last year. Anyway, will have some cuttings for postage in a month or so if you still need it then.

Hi Chena: Miss B Havin sounds like another Brug I can't live without. Let me know when you've got cuttings,and thanks very much for the offer.
Hi wildflower: Would dearly luv to replace Susie Q. I will be happy to send postage to you as soon as you let me know when you are ready. Most appreciative.
Thanks all Gloria

Hi Ruth Ann: You are so so right! I meant to write Flamenco. Got my dances mixed. lol Gloria
