I've just got a card reader for my daughters lappy so i can finally download some photos. These were taken back in september. This is Brug. Dark Rosetta and is a stunning colour.  And this beauty is B. "Chloranth" and has huge yellow flowers which are very sweetly scented. The plant has grown considderably since then and is absolutely covered in buds as we speak !!!  |

Well ive never had one that doesnt smell,some stronger than others,yellow is my strongest,followed by pink,but they all smell,are you putting your nose right inside Jen,maybe its cos ive got a big nose ;D

Right inside - you is joking - I could get a fly up my nose I thought you said the scent was overpowering - In fact I said this b 4 the smell of the leaves is minging awful - maybe this is a mutant brug |

Brug leaves dont smell,you sure you havent got a blocked drain ;D
Whats an ickle fly up the nose,compared to watching all those bugs being eaten ;D

My Brug leaves DO pong FB - the same smell as last year - they are not near any drains and we dont have these anyway - they are underground
I could pop one in a jiffy bag if you like - if put in plastic bag it should be OK - what do you think

I did feed it FB - a good dose of something or other - I dont think not feeding a plant affects the perfume it gives off does it I dont feed my roses very often but they smells lovely they does |
