FPF said: PS: I agree that keeping some or all of your cuttings as insurance in case the main plant throws a fit and decides to die in dormancy is a great idea. Worst case scenario is you need them. Best case is your have a bunch of gifts to give.

Exactly, well said! Not every spot has enough time between the frosts to see Brug blooms from a grounded cutting, but I use all kinds of tropical stuff that I've saved & propagated "as annuals." Most of the plants sold as annuals are frost-tender perennials.

FPF said: Unfortunately, pinching back didn't always work for me. It might force branching from the leaf nodes but it didn't always force a Y for me.

Branching is branching, not sure I understand this part?

The golden rule: Do to others only that which you would have done to you.

Try to be more valuable than a bad example.
