Betty that was extemely helpful! I'll admit that untill I saw your illustration on the other thread I was a bit confused. I kept thinking I was looking for alternating leaves. Of course I immediately ran to my cuttings to see what I've got and I DO have some with the uneven leaves. I'm a little confused there too (are you seeing a pattern here?) because only a couple of the leaves have the uneven appearance while the others seem to be flush where they join. Does that tell me anything or is that just the way it works?

OK now back to the Y. If my cutting came from above the Y does that mean it doesn't have to have it's own Y to bloom, or is a Y required for flowers irregardless?

Sorry for the barage of questions. Geeze, I wonder why I didn't I just ask before instead of lurking around picking up bits and pieces here and there?

Thank you!
