Mellie,
B-E-A-utiful Brug. I believe i've got 2 of the exact same one, and I also thought it was pretty much a generic, no-frills, commonplace variety.
I'm just outside Clearwater, and I'm growing Brugs in full sun, dappled shade and full shade. The only thing to be concerned with is the quality of the soil. With Florida soil not all that wonderful to begin with, some of those full-sun locations have had all the worthwhile substances baked right out of them.
Depending on the soil quality, you might want to toss some compost or a bag or two of manure into the hole before planting, followed by a healthy spread of mulch. After the Brug is established it'll produce it's own shade, but the first few months can be torturous without some moisture retention and basic nutrients added.
Did the lady mention what color/variety that new cutting is?
Mike
