I have a noid pink for postage 6.95
christmascactus, where to you live? Although, cuttings are more likely to be available in the fall, they also take longer to root than cuttings taken in the spring. If you live in a southern state, it's not much harder to root, but in northern states, you'll also run into overwintering problems.

S.C.
Due to a fall and breaking my hand,I can't do any trading. Can only do postage. I would really love to grow these beautiful plants.
I am confused on the time to get cuttings...I have ask and some told me to wait til fall and some say spring... the only time I think I shouldn't get cuttings would be in freezing weather which is Jan.-Feb. here.
I will have some soon...say around end of Oct. I gotta share the love...if it where not for so many kind people here I( would never have gotten the brug bug : ) and I got it baddd lol. Wish you lived in Philly I could give you some plants I started from seed...no way I can bring them all in.It will be hard to chose ~sigh~
pensacola, do you have any brug cuttings for postage available, or for seed trade? Thanks Rose

Kim, thank you so much!!!
Dmail me to let me know how much and where to send.
Christmascactus, Cuttings are usually easier to root when the mother plant is growing fast, in the spring and summer, but people don't do much pruning during those periods because the more leaves and branches a Brug has the more flowers it produces. Cuttings are more plentiful in the fall when Brugs are being readied to be taken indoors.

betty, thank you for explaining
wizz, I have Dr. Suess and Jean Pasco cuttings for postage. Please dmail me if interested.
Hey Kim! How are you doing? You are the one that got me hooked on brugs! Thank you so much!!!
Why you are welcome Linda ;o) and who have you hooked lol!!!
The temps are lower than the norm here..might not get that last flush ~sigh~
LOTS of fellow DG-er's!!! I have paid it forward so many times. Last year I lost just about all my brugs, but someone from here always comes through with freebies, or a nice co-op!
But fall is coming, and we will all have plenty to share again soon!
Would love to trade a nice cutting of jean pasco and dr. suess brug for your blue mouse ears hosta. Interested?
I will have some Creamsickly (large double white) and Susanne and a NOID pink (both have huge pink blooms).
Dmail if anyone is interested. They had tons of buds when I took them to the g'house 2 weeks ago, and decided to not cut them back till they had bloomed. Blooming like gangbusters now. Here's the pink.........
and the Creamsickle.
