                    They're really greedy plants I've found @Dips they'll soon bud up though...:thumbsup:

                    My cuttings courtesy of our @pete :thumbsup: just continue to flower and the sent of the Grand Marnier is to die for on an evening...:wub2:...I'll certainly be trying to grow more of them:wub2:

                        Brug looks lovely. What type of Brug is it - Grand Marnier?

                          I dry it off around Nov and cut it back hard, the cut off pieces can be used as cuttings.
                          It then goes in an unheated garage until next spring.
                          I very rarely water from Nov to late Mar.

                            OK. i wasn't sure what to do with mine as this is the first year I have had a Brug. I wasn't sure whether to cut back to ground level or cut some of the top growth to where the stem forks to a 'Y'.
