Carolyn...got a few ?s. Do you ever stake your durandii? Mine is rather young yet, only a couple of stems. Saw it on an old pbs garden show of an old couple from Canada. Their's was huge!!!!!, 'bout 5ft wide. It's suppose to be a non climber but I think they had it caged 'cause it was about 5ft in height also. Love it's blue flowers and I just had to get one,lol.
Next ?. I believe I am growing just a plain integ., lav flowers. It's beginning to get a bit unruly and is too close to the path. I would like to dig, divide and replant elsewhere in the garden. Any experience on moving a full sized speciman or dividing one? When I've moved clems. they've been small and those are easy.
I have Rooguchi also, and it seems to me their might be a few more unusuals I picked up at the Denver Botanic Garden sale they have in the spring, most I'm thinking were the non climbers. I'd check out in the garden but it's still under a blanket of snow and more is falling tonight.
Thanks for the oohs and ahhs, but my pix is of sunrise (5:30 ish am). In the spring I get up before God, lol. I'm still transferring photos to this 'puter so not alot of choices til I finish, lol.
