To me brugs are not for ever they have a shelf live take cuttings and grow new one ditch the mother plant. I have 15 fters here grown by William the master there trunks are as big around as my top of my leg. Alot of growers once the mother plant looks ugly they root half doz. cuttings from below the y or you get a bush and start again. It will last maybe 5 yrs then its time again.
