Thanks, all. I will move my 'Torch'es into a spot with less than all-afternoon sun and see if they recover.

Db I have 4 large brugs, two 4-footers still in pots and two 7-footers in the ground. Do I have to treat every single leaf with the predatory mites to protect them? Phew, that's a lotta leaves!

Here's a shot of my Gryphon clump this morning. Must admit the silver spotting has faded out recently, hope it will come back with the cooler weather. Lower leaves have more. Still, I love the leaf shape and nice clumping habit of the plant. Some of the leaves are 10in. across. I have taken a division of one plant and been successful in rooting it, so if they don't survive winter (let's hope it's more normal this year) I'll have starts for next year.
