Brin, I do keep some mother plants that have pods on them, but cuttings take so much less room and I don't have a greenhouse. Growing so many brugs, and if I kept all the mother plants from them, we would have to move out. I just don't have the room. Right now I have two in Jim's shop and about 15 in the garage that doesn't freeze as well as four in the house. I gave away about 30 named brugs this year and I can't even tell you how many seedlings took rides to new homes. Just no room. Even if I did have a greenhouse, I would still do some from cuttings. I don't usually have a problem getting them to bloom at all. This Pink Beauty was from a cutting. I think it did very well. It had at least three flushes of bloom this year and was about 7 ft. tall. This was just one of the several branches on it.
