CAM, if you have a sunny window for a brug cutting, please try it at least once. This plant is very rewarding. The dramatic and fragrant flowers are definitely worth the trouble.

I got my first brug cuttings from Gita probably about 4 years ago. I used to winter-over the big plants, but now I only root cuttings each fall without keeping the mother plants.

The first photo is my 'Dr Seuss' last year. It grew from a 10" cutting to this size in one season.
The second photo is the 'Maya' about 10 days ago. It was moved from the pot to the garden and survived my 2 weeks of absence.
