Brugs are a new plant to me. Does the photo show the infamous 'Y'? Of the four rooted cuttings (all the pink ones) I got last fall, three are doing this. Some of the leaves have a pronounced asymmetrical look on the 'Y' growth, but I'm sure it's too hot for them to bloom right now. We are entering the time where triple digit temps are normal.

The tallest plant that's not showing the 'Y' growth is 'Tequila Sunrise', the orange/apricot one. It and two of the pink ones are having foliage that is puckering badly. Normally I'd think this was caused by some kind of sucking insect, but I can't find one. Is it possible the high temperature is causing the new leaf growth to pucker? They get water every day, but they still wilt some in the hottest part of the day.
