Wintering brugs

Greensburg, IN(Zone 6a)

can you keep Brugs growing through the winter in the house, I purchased some cuttings (I have in water) and a couple of plants with healthy roots, do I just keep them like other plants or is there something special I need to do

You can keep them just like a regular house plant in the house over the winter,they just need a kind of rest period in the winter for about 6-8 weeks.

What do you mean by "a resting period"?

I'm not a brug grower although I do have 3, and do not participate in the brug forum. However, mine have survived by putting them in the dark and cool basement along with a few other plants I let go dormant. I water about once a month so they don't fully dry out, and bring out in spring when nights stay about 50ºF. Worked for me in zone 6b.

I would like to let them keep growing in the house. Kind of get the double duty growing season, if ya know what I mean... What would happen if I just brought them in and put them in front of my bay window? Wouldn't they be fine and just keep growing? Mere

well it helps if they need a rest period, that is when I can take two weeks off to visit son in CT. I sure would not want them to die.
