If you are referring to my 'Beautyberry' shrub, although I tend to think you are talking about that unbelievably striking passiflora flower - I can send you a cutting for the shrub in Spring, Blake, and you could root it!

Yes, they are all so lovely, aren't they? I just love this thread. The pictures are very cheering.

Oh yes, Blake, I would enjoy sending you a cutting, because they root easily, and then you'll have your own perennial shrub that will return for you every year!

Don't be afraid to remind me come Spring, ok? I will send you two or three cuttings, so you'll have a good chance of success. I still have your address...

Good luck with yours as well...

I didn't know I could root brugmansia in water. I am going to try that. My MIL is going to put some in potting mix. We will see which one will root first. Thanks for the tip.

Thanks Eric!


Grew these "red currant" cherry tomatoes in a hanging basket, so I could bring them inside late in the season, and allow the fruits to ripen - which they are...

Verry pretty HBL! this reminds me... A friend asked me a few days ago "can I grow tomatoes over the winter?". I said you need extra light, etc.

But can you grow a tomato plant that makes alot of produce over the winter without aney extra light? I might grow some over the winter to see what they do.

Yes, one variety that performs exceptionally well over Winter, without supplemental lighting is, "Patio" tomato.


I've grown it many Winters in my south facing window, and it even produced a fair size crop of delicious red beauties, comparable to Summer.
