This is a shot of a brug cutting that a neighbor gave me last year before we left Fla. to go north for the summer. It was one foot tall when we left and now it is very tall and covered with blooms. I took this photo this morning. Sadly, some critter had broken off a branch that had 6 small bloom pods on it. It was lying on the ground and I couldn't just throw it away, so I removed most of the large leaves and stuck it in a vase of water. I'm thinking it will turn mushy and rot and the little blooms won't do anything. I know I should just toss it, but it is so hard to do that.
