Thank you Chrissy!

I was reading the two links listed by Veronica and found them to be just fascinating! The tutorials on propagating, germinating seeds, and growing seedlings is excellent! I am a visual person and found the pictorial information to be very, very useful! Thanks again for sharing those sites with me.

This forum needs a sticky thread! Has anyone thought about creating one? Someone should!

Here is a photo of the "mother" brug from the seeds I am sharing (with those interested) She is called Pink Beauty and a beauty she IS!!! She was a cutting that I rooted and have been growing in a pot since November. I finally put her in the ground this week. Was afraid if we got an usual cold freeze she would die. It's definitely warm enough to plant her outside now! I shall see how she does. I have another Brug that I also just planted about 20 feet from her. That Brug is called Whiskers. Got it at the same time as Pink Beauty and Ecuador Pink. All branch cuttings from DonnaB. I have heard that once they are planted into the ground, they usually take off if they are healthy plants to begin with.
