this is my first post on this forum, so Hi!

this cutting bloomed a little last year at 2 yrs. old. it's now 3 and there are buds and blooms on every branch. i never got to see the parent plant bloom. it too was a cutting that i received about a year before we moved from the keys. it was in the ground so i left it and just took this cutting with me when we moved. we moved in fall and the pot got forsaken by the side of the house and took two light frosts before i remembered it and stuck it in the garage. i was surprised last year when it lived. this past winter it went into the garage on time! it's now still in a large pot, but sunk down into the ground and staying there. if we have frost warnings, i'm just going to wrap it in a wool blanket. it's about 5' high now and getting really pretty, (i think!). i don't the name of it, but thought you all might like a picture. thanks, debi
