Teresa, if you are a full DG member, you can access my journal and review the entire process I went through to grow my brugs from seed; included are the details of the cross-hybridization. I documented this in detail.

My mum classifies these plants as 'weeds', in that they grow rapidly in most cirumstances (expet freeziung) and rampantly. So my way of growing the cuttings works: I take 18" sticks from above the Y, as mature as possible, and put them in a bucket of water (8-10" deep) with a splash of hydrogen peroxide and let them sit in the basement over the winter. I replace the water about once a month. They sprout roots in a month or two. I pot them up in spring and put them out after frost (end of May here).
