Texas I just know we have chatted elsewhere here, but I have CRS this evening....I remember of course because you are in Palestine and I'm in Frankston! Did I already invite you to our RU on October 11?

Anyhoo, went out in my nightie to get you a Y picture, LOL! I wouldn't do that for just anyone you know.....Once you see this you will know what to expect. No blooms until this happens on a Brug.... This one lost a few upper leaves to Ike, but I keep the bottom leaves pruned off.

BTW, guess what? In our zone, Frankston/Palestine, if you want reallly large Brugs, we can leave ours in the ground overwinter! All of mine are in the ground. They prefer morning sun, evening shade here. Just cut them off to the ground, mulch really well, and they will grow bigger every year! Aren't we lucky? You can root the cuttings to share with friends, or plant for even more Brugs! ☺
