I have a "Maya" Brug that is about 4yrs. old in the same pot. Means--I have NOT root-pruned it or re-potted it....
I usually dig this 16" (or so) pot half way into my bed for stability and to keep the soil temps, as even as possible.

Well--This Summer--this Brug has outdone anything I have ever seen!!!! It is currently in it's 4th amazing bloom-flush. This bloom-Bonanza started with the first flush in June. I was amazed--as it had just, barely, come out of my basement and dormancy. In no time at all--it just went blooming-bonkers!

I believe this SHOW is due to the fact that it is VERY root-bound.

Here is flush #1--in June
