Well I don't want to take a chance on frost so today we moved the bigger brugs onto the deck under the shade roof.
I've cut back on the water and no fertilizer and have been removing the yellowing leaves and spent flowers in preparation for dormancy in an uninsulated, unheated shed.
The yellow possibly Dr. Seuss, still has 30 blooms on it and many more buds so I'm hoping to keep it blooming for a while longer.
Wish me luck.
