It's funny you should ask that....
I was looking up Elephant ears one day a year or so ago & my search lead me to Dave's Garden website. I found my info, & cruzed around a bit, of course not being a member I couldn't "cruze" too much. I happened on the Brug Thread & read the beginnings of them but not being a member you can't read replies, (they get cha there!) I got intrested as to what these "Brugs" were & how to grow them, So I paid my dues & got to read all about them.
I remember seeing a plant in San Francisco once (from a far) like I was seeing pics of & always wondered what it was. So I jumped right in & asked LOTS of questions. About this time last year a friend that lives in Houston sent me some cuttings off her neighbors bush, I rooted them & away I went. I bought a few kinds of seeds from Calas but didn't have much luck getting them started. Pete shared some of his seeds with me & I had better luck. I now have 6-7 different ones & searching for MORE! I got hooked like most everyone else that reads the "Brug Threads" So it's all your fault. Thank-x
Now my Green Hut only has Brugs in it & my Elephant ear has to be crushed into a corner in my house!!! Not sure what I'm doing with the other plants that grew in the GH last winter!!! Hey, Thank you all for this wonderful addiction, The generosity of your seeds & information.
Hugs, Bj
