Rita, is your Iochroma blue? It is gorgeous. I can't imagine the watsonii leaves getting that big. Are they in a pot?
My big dippers has been patiently waiting for me to put them in their winter home. Tommorrow I bring in more plants. I fear they warm weather will turn cold again, since my knees hurt so bad. You know I am bored at night when I am wandering around peering at plants in the dark. Tonight I "saved " some inpatiens I started from seeds last winter. I just can't bear to see my "babies" just die.I love to catch those seeds , the way they pop open in my hand is fun to feel.
After the plumbago is finished blooming, I have to cut it back. I am going to try to get cuttings of it to root. No luck in past years, but who knows..
