Someone on eBay is selling OS but the Brug in the picture is not OS. The long tendrils are nice but not OS. Here is the real thing with her buddy Sam.

Beautiful pic, colors are very sharp. Both brugs are gorgeous Ken.

Yours is MUCH nicer! :) Would love to have a cutting - if & when the time comes!

Thank you Ken! I wish there was a way to keep this from happening, but unfortunately there isn't.
There is one selling Butterfly that is not Butterfly in the pic!
Buyers beware.. DO your homework before you buy!
That's an amazing plant Ken. It's gorgeous.
I know Willy wouldn't do that on purpose. I sent him an email to let him know. I'm sure he'll fix it. :^)
I do not know the seller but I do know they bought a goodly number of nice Brugs last year and proably has a lot of great Brugs to sell. I do not think they are members of any Brug org. which is strange for someone who is into the plant as much as they seem to be. The Brug world is really very small and most serious Brug growers know each other. By not being a member of one of the Brug org. and making mistakes like this they can really hurt their business. I have seen that they sometimes have two different Brugs on sale and are using the same picture. If they want to keep their image as a good Brug seller they need to start getting it right.

Ken,
Is the name of the other brug in your photo really Sam? It's beautiful!
Mickey
Yes that is Sam. This is only the third time he hs bloomed and he is over three years old. He is not a vegorous grower and is just now starting to really grow. This Fall is the first time I have ever had a Sam cutting to root. Maybe a new cutting will start off a better grower.
