ferns and hydrangeas
What's blooming in my yard....
guess I should have said growing and blooming...
Thumbergia myasorensis...will it ever bloom??????
caladiums
piper - root beer plant
Brug. 'Jamie"
varg. Duranta
Cordyline
White mandevilla
agapanthus, clerodendrum delectum, impatiens, and YTT
That white Mandevilla is very pretty :) I think those are so beautiful but I can never find them around here!
Well I would offer to send cuttings or root them, but I have tried several times to root them and have been unsucessful. I think it is because the nodes are so far apart. I may try air-layering it.
I have tried to as well, mine never root! It's strange, it's the only thing I can't get to root!
Same here, I don't know what the secret is.
The funny thing is you can buy the red, pink and many shades of but I have NEVER once seen a white :) I think white flowers are just so refreshing!
Your Gardens are beautiful. I like all your plants.
Thank you, Debra
they have whites at logees...
logees...is running SALES!!! i LOVE there hibiscus, but the blue one i want NEVER goes on sale!
The Lowe's down here has had the white mandy''s. but not the scented one's. (Mandevilla laxa, Chilean jasmine). I bought 5 seeds and 4 sprouted right away. I've had hit/miss luck Rooting Mandevilla and Allamanda's, I'm trying now with the Cherries Jublie and Yellow Allamanda.

mjs,
I must have the lemon lime, mine is green and yellow. It's beautiful. Yes, I have rooted some cuttings. They don't seem to be too hard to root.
GAgirl1066--have you tried to lay the vine down in the pot and hairpin it???..lol..what I meant is..keep the vine still attached to momma plant and lay one of the long vines down and use a U( turn it upside down) pieces of wire to pin it into a pot..and just ignore it.. then if it is rooted in the pot..then cut it off from the momma plant..lol.. and ya know ya didn't lose it..
Hi Nadine,
No I haven't, but I may try that. That's one plant I have not had sucess with, another is nepenthes. Trying to root that, failed twice.
I save the "thingies" that come with the bag's of coffee to do the same thing. I like them cause their covered with something that doesn't rust. I lay the vine down in the pot, add some spagnum peat and vermiculite around the "wound" site ( that's me scratching the leaf nodes) and generally it works. I have had pretty good success taking cuttings just after a node which has bloomed. Humidity is key, If I take actual cutting, it goes in the greenhouse.
