Same here regarding the wilt factor. When it first started getting really warm, she began to be the most wilted, the earliest in the day. When I saw that I moved her right next to the house so she got morning sun until barely Noon. From then on she was shaded by the house. She did have one bad time with the durned broad mites, but all the others with the exception of KBS were on death row because of them. Once she recovered from that, there was no stopping her.
The scent/no scent thing I couldn't really tell because she was surrounded by literally a hundred other blooms. It wasn't until I brought her inside that I could detect the "fresh" smell Sherry refers to. Mary, is that how you would describe the scent on yours?
This Brug is a winner for me, hands down. I'd have half a dozen full sized plants of her if I could.. maybe interspersed with a yellow.. and an orange.. a few whites.. KBS for sure.. a Golden Lady.. maybe good 'ol Insignis Pink cause she was my first.. ;)
