Sally--
Are the stems dried all the way down? or--just the top parts?

I always cut my brugs back before I bring them in. So--maybe, if you did not,
it is just the tops of the stems that are drying up? Depends on how big it was.

Also--when I dig my Brug up--I put a plastic bag around the exposed toots and the pot.

By spring--you can cut it back as far as you want--BUT--try to stay above the first "Y",
which may be way down on the trunk where it first split.
I should have enough Dr. Seuss cuttings ti share--IF they all get over this funk.

On the Maya--mine in the basement (dormant) is doing good. It has leaves at the top
of each stem--so it is alive. It will grow come summer--I am sure.

Re Maya cuttings I took--I almost have none...I say "almost--as there is ONE, poor little one
that is struggling to live. It has 2 tiny leaves on it--and that is that...
If this one makes it--it will be donner's....keeping my fingers crossed....

Any of you that have aa healthy Maya brug --please take a couple cuttings early this spring
to share--in case mine gives up the ghost. Donner really wants one.

Here is my poor, struggling-to-live Maya cutting. And the small mama in the Shop.
