This is my first Brug ever. She hasn't bloomed yet, but recently pushed out alot of pods (?). And a friend/foe that is eating her, any advise is appreciated.

Pam, one way or another, the nibbler has to go! Nice big ol' buds...be sure to show up pics when the blooms open.

Hello Pam!
It can be remarkable how much those plant-predators can consume!
I found some leaf-nibbling happpening a month ago in my brugs. I've had success in checking the backside of my brug's leaves... found a couple of similar visitors napping there. They were quickly re-located into another area of my yard. If you happen to find a coccoon and hesitate to discourge a butterfly... just pinch off the leaf and carry it to a different area of your backyard.

Congrats on the buds and I agree. Relocate your little visitor, lol.
