I can see why #1 is #1 - gorgeous! I've never delved into brugs because they would need to be in a container and I kill everything in a container. I do, however, thoroughly enjoy them whenever I happen onto one. Majestic plants.
I want to live in a world where the chicken can cross the road without its motives being questioned.
I've only grown one brugs but lost it the third winter (garaged, lack of water I suspect). It was blooming size purchased potted but had no name attached. I've found a great price on some super sized pots and thinking I might have to buy two or three as I have a birthday coming up. If I buy the monstrous pots I'll definitely have to have another brugs or two. Definitely makes a landscape statement in my area being highly uncommon.
