Richest, saturated, deep-golden orange

12 years ago

I will be a first time Brug. grower, and I have my eye on a few "orange" varieties.

Here is a list of the plants that I may grow, but I need to know, in your opinions, which of the following Brugs, has the most consistent, golden-yellow-orange color, under equal growing conditions?

I gather that the flowers fade to different shadings, depending on a number of cultural factors. I'm looking for a flower that has saturated colors, NOT pastels that may show deeper colors if conditions are just right. Flower descriptions are of little use to me. The colors are always exaggerated in catalogs.

These are the varieties that I am considering:

Dr. Seuss

Miami Orange Glow

Solid Gold

I found sources for these plants. My first choice is "HARZENBRUCKE", which is a German variety. I need a source/grower for this plant.

Thanks for your two-cents worth.

Langenbuscher Gartens is a beautiful brug. This one blooms well for me as opposed to Herrenhauser Garten which I had for 4 years and never got a bloom from.

Solid Gold has been one of my favs since I got it. For me it opens a nice gold then slowly darkens to a red-gold, and i find the scent delicious.
