What a neat story, Gitagal! Thank you for sharing!!!

After reading an article about them in "Southern Living" some time back, I had wanted one...and then these were given to me as cuttings by a couple of classmates in my Master Gardener class last Winter. I have five and I absolutely love them. I would love some more varieties, but not until I have room to house them all LOL -- brugs have to come first! I did notice that when the days started to shorten this fall, they started dropping a few leaves here and there, but other than that, they've stayed pretty decent looking. If the tall ones get any taller though, I don't know where I'll put them! And, I don't know why they're no longer popular. I think they have the most gorgeous foliage...Thank you for your great tips!!! Gretchen
