Sally,

Welcome back from your vacation!

I also got a cutting of that Passi, but it had NO roots at all and died. I remember her telling me that "this is the one that makes the fruit".

I bet you had piles and piles of tomatoes to deal with. Whacha gonna do with them all--or have already done?

See you soon!

Here's a picture of my Yellow Datura. They have done well.

How is yours doing? Should have lots and lots of seed pods on it by now. They look like little hand grenades to me....:o) To keep them from cracking open and losing all the seeds, and also from Earwigs and other bugs getting in there and eating all the seeds, put a piece of nylon stocking around each pod and tie it shut behind the pod until it turns brown and dry and is ripe enough to remove.
