Hi Raven....

Have you found your minibelle to be a fast grower?.....i just recently was able to get a cutting and has grown a new vine quite quickly....I am hoping it keeps up.....Yours looks like a nice size........has it bloomed for you?.....Nice looking plant..

Hi Sandy,

It seems to be a good grower, it flowered all summer long, when the old flowers would drop, within a week new buds were back on. It didn't grow new leaves and vines so much during that time, but now it's starting to take off again with growing them. I took a bunch of pictures of the flowers at that time, but now I can't find a single one, I know they are saved somewhere, I will dig them out and post the flower pics on the PDB.

They are very pretty and they smell wonderful!! They have the shape and smell of the shepherdii, but instead of being white like shepherdii they are a very pretty pink, much like carnosa, it's a really good mix!
