There is always talk about which is best, growing Brugs in pots or planted in the ground. In the ground, hands down but then you must dig them up before Winter or leave them at your own risk. I live in zone 8 and leave almost all my Brugs in the ground. There are a few that will not come back, even after a mild Winter. Veronica has asked me to post which ones do well for me and ones don't.
