Someone sent me 3 brug cuttings in a trade. Since I concentrate on African violets most of the time, I just stuck all three of them in containers outside and ignored them all summer. I didn't get any blooms with the wind whipping around at 40+ mph.

Then we were told that the temps were going to drop to 40 degrees so i ran out and grabbed all the pots and put them on the front screened in porch with poly wrapped around it.

Look what I found yesterday? Maybe total ignorance is bliss. I just stuck each cutting in a pot.

Now I want lots of kinds and colors next year.
