Returning from my aunt's therapy, we noticed a guy in a pick up on the side of the road. As we passed we both thought he had brugs for sale. Went back and I don't know how to tell you this, but, oh the horror, we think it was a brug mill!! He must have had 20 brugs like the one attached, tied with a rope, sitting in the blazing sun, that badly needed water. He had other plants in the same shape. Well, I started looking, and found this one and it would have torn my heart out to have left it. Bless its heart, two of its trunks are bowed, but I fell in love with it at first sight. No buds, but it looks healthy except for the sunburned and broken leaves from riding all smushed together. The man said it was white, ya think??? He didn't even know what kind of plant it was. Also, what should I do about the bowed trunks?? Can I cut them off and root them and, if so, how do I do it? In case you wondered, and if you can believe it, I paid $6, no tax, for the plant.
