Texas Gardening: Brugs - do you grow them? Part two. , 1 by bettydee

There are some wonderful new Brugs available, but the price can be astronomical. One Brug, hybridized by a DG member, gordo, is a triple yellow called The Chief that is to die for. It sold on e-Bay for $280.00. Several of us toyed with the idea of forming a consortium to buy it, getting an expert to grow it for us and have the grower send out rooted cuttings when the mother plant was big enough, but that idea fell through. I have no idea how high the winner would have been willing to go to get it.

I have a few white and a few pink doubles. Since I just purchased them, they are still small plants except for a large double apricot called Creamsickle that I have had for about 3 years. She has always bloomed a creamy white for me. I think it's because of our hot Texas summers. I may have to toss her out if she has what I suspect is SB, a contagious non-curable fungal disease. http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/420154/
I am trying to get it confirmed or cleared. If it is SB disease, I have to throw the Brug out, pot and all.

This was my Creamsickle last year.
