All summer long I tried to root Brugs cuttings to no avail......In water. About September I got mad and stuck the plants into potting soil indoors. Low an behold , I now have a very nice looking plant in my HOuse.. Gees are the leaves huge........I have to keep it in for winter, wonder if I should start adding a cathedral ceiling???????

:ding: Yes........ I thought I planted double pinks this year and I didnt see any>. I will take some whites ....... I will have to get my list in order and let you choose some off it .. Every time I make one, I loose it......I spent the whole day up there in my flower room, making a nice spot for ole Brug to get the best sun in my south window. Sure dont know what it will do........ I take in lots of plants to save.......Or ole man winter kills them.

Some one on here gave me one...and for two years now it's been like 3 inches tall, it does come back every year and I always hope it will get taller, it's maybe 4 inches tall now, but a lady I visit here gave me 10 a week ago and a huge root ball of them too. I'm so excited because she had all 3 colors so I hope I will too. I spread them all over my big yard and all but 2 have sprouted back out after all our rain we had. The ones she gave me are like 4 foot (or was) I cut them back to help in the transplant.

everytime I think to check on it, it's covered in bird poop...think that might be stunting it.

That is possible cause HD always cautioned me of using chicken manure.. Too much ammonia I think he said....... Can't ask him, he went to bed..Steelers are loosing..Too cold in Colorado. 70º In Pennsylvania they got used to it.
