TO RETURN TO SANITY AND EXPLAIN WHAT HAS HAPPENED......

I always doubted that the small Dr. S. i had could have provided all the cuttings
that I rooted. Something just did not make sense.
The SMALL Dr. S. was so frail and skinny--the one I said I could NOT cut anything off of.

I had forgotten that I had TWO Dr. S.'s last year. The older one---and the smaller one.
Today--as I was cutting up the "beast"--I just discovered that the big one---which I have been
calling the NOID Pink Brug--was actually the older Dr. Seuss Brug.
Saw a marking on its trunk--"DR" Whew!!!! What a relief! The Dr. LIVES!!!!
Had to chop up his Stethoscope though! Teeeeeeeeeee....Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee....

OK! Back to sanity!
The old, dead looking Brug DID get chopped up. And--doled out accordingly.
As all "Sagas"--this one too had a happy ending.
Please read all the explanations on each photo posted....

1--Holly--You and Ric are getting the old trunk one. It has itsy-bitsy new growths all up and down.
I did root-prune it somewhat--and did put it in a anew pot (with a decadent soil mixture) with the
holes cut out already so you can just sink it in a bigger patio pot--or in a bed for easy removal
in the fall. If you need my Brug. care "Primer"I will be glad to send it to you.

2--Coleup---because of your selfless generosity to give up your Dr. S. Brug to Chantelle--
you will be getting the largest cutting off the top of the old Dr. S. plant. Chantelle will get the one
I had tagged for you since last year. See picture--
