Good morning to all;
A lot of helpful info. are provided here, thank you for posting. All the suggestions are all very helpful. I'm glad I've joined the thread. It's informative. Thanks again for sharing. I've an unknown white brug that opened last evening. I thought y'all would enjoy the bloom. As far as overwintering our brugs, I agreed with having light source for photosenthesis, whatever little amount helps. For the past few years we've used ordinary florescent lights (instead of expensive grow-lights) in our basement. I worked well. Even some of my tropical plants went right on blooming such as trop. Hibs. hybrid Allamanda, even my rootings of vines and such. :-)
This is however, it's going to be my first year overwintering brugs. For I learned they would do better, bloom better from 'old woods' instead of young ones that sprouted back from the ground. (For those of us growing them outdoor where we've to cut back to the ground - take notes).
