YEA!! Here is a picture of one of my two brugs that I purchased early this year.
This is Pink Perfeckton. They both had a case of mites and I manged to get this one to grow and it finally just put on buds.
The weather has taken a turn for the worse here. Cold.
I am just so happy that I was able to see a liking of what a double looks like! So I am happy.

Now I just need to wait for the rain to stop and then I will dig him up and bring him in along with my other brug that did not grow but is still alive(triple).

Question: Should I leave the "sucker" shoot on the plant or should I cut him off and make a cuttings when I dig him up and put him in a pot in my house.
I do not have a basement so I figured I would stripp the leaves off of him and the other and spray them down and keep them barely alive at my back window.

Any suggestions welcomed..As I do not want to loose these.
Thanks
