@5601Lisa It looks like the plant is still in a very small pot. You may want to pot it up around March/April and start watering it. I would cut the plant down to about 10" so that the new growths will give the plant a better form.
The pots I used for brugs are at least 18" - 20". Add a lot of moisture crystals in the potting soil so that the soil doesn't get dried out easily when it's 90F out there.
Good luck.
