Mm, don't think so, Deb. That is the Original, One and Only Monster that I grew from your cutting last year and planted in the ground this spring. Maybe Stardancer has been dancing with the Monster when I'm not looking??

Glad you got the seeds, something ate the seedlings I had started. Yours will be safer, getting big enough to defend themselves in your basement. I'll run out and take a new picture of the mama plant tomorrow morning. It blew over in a squall from Isaac, but is tied up again now, and looking amazing. btw, it has thorns on the trunks like rose thorns - I found out the hard way!

Alice, those vincas are sold as annuals but I've had them go 3 or 4 years for me. Even through our bad winters. Have to pinch them a bit to keep them bushy the following years, but they are tender perennials.

Thunbergia from Mj, what a bloomer!
