Donna, I saw 'Snowbank' for sale at Green Thumbs Galore http://www.greenthumbsgalore.c... They're a good grower, and I just received a plant from them of New Orleans Lady that is very nice and healthy. BUT:

The variegated brugs are really wimpy - slower growers and much more finicky than regular ones. (that would explain the high price they are charging on that site)

Not to discourage you, but I've tried twice, first with a rooted plant and next with a cutting of Maya. Neither of them made it, even through their first summer! I have no trouble growing the plain-leafed ones into large lusty plants at all. Brugs love my conditions here.
