Speaking of spider mites. I guess that's what I discovered on a plant in the back of the HH when I did a little rearranging Monday. Fine! I decided it would be my sacrificial lamb to see how brugs stood up to weather. Tue a.m. thunderstorms and rainnnnn. Then the cold front moved in and it's been buffeted by wind. Will the rain and cold eliminate the mites as well?

No branches have snapped and no leafs have blown off. Kind of seems like the brug foliage goes limp in response to high winds as a defense mechanism. SWAG on my part but sounded logical.
