I have a Peaches and Cream Brug that I carry over in my basement--in a dormant form--every year. I believe this Spring I root-pruned it and re-potted it in fresh potting mix adding lots of Dynamite plant food, kelp meal, etc....

It is now in it's big pot, which is 3/4 buried in a bed and it gets really bright AM sun until about 2PM. It has grown and grown--with huge leaves (see picture below) and appears VERY lush.
There are about 6 main trunks and they have all "y"'ed long ago....

My other one has (Rose Souvelons) has had 2 rounds of blooms already.

Oooops.....I just went out to look and i DO see flower buds! Yippie!!!!

Still wondering--what took it so long????

Thanks, Gita
