I have appreciated these lovely shrubs for a long time, and I have grown some nondescript white varieties. I have repeatedly brought my Brug inside for the winter and then back out in the spring. I want to grow them but I have little time or space for them in the winter. I have some great sheltered spots for them, I was hoping I could get some good variety recommendations for some colorful varieties that have a chance of wintering over and flowering the next year. I have kept my Brug in the same pot for years and it is tall, but slow to leaf out and I don't think it has ever flowered. I know they like good drainage and lots of good organic nutrients. I would be happy to trade anything on my list for some nice rooted cuttings (I would love some pink, yellow, orange, purple varieties.) I am willing to buy them from a reputable supplier, I would appreciate the recommendation. Please let me know any good advise you all have for me. I think it is great that you all have such a tight community based around the beautiful tree Daturas. Thank you all very much. P.S. here is my pride and joy, visit us at the hardy orchid thread sometime. Slipperman
